Movie Night at the Community Centre

Saturday, May 10, 2025, 7 pm

Join us for a special screening of The Apprentice, produced by Gambier resident Dan Bekerman. Released last year, the film received two Academy Award nominations and was featured in the main selection at the Cannes Film Festival.

Dan describes The Apprentice as a reflection of the impact of human-centered storytelling in a time of complex political dialogue.

The film offers a humanistic perspective rather than a partisan one and has received praise from voices across the political spectrum.

A discussion with Dan will follow the screening.
