THE APPRENTICE is a dive into the underbelly of the American empire. It charts a young Donald Trump’s ascent to power through a Faustian deal with the influential right-wing lawyer and political fixer Roy Cohn.

With Emmy & Golden Globe Award Nominee and Silver Bear Winner Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump; Jeremy Strong (Emmy, Golden Globe Award, and SAG Award Winner) as Roy Cohn; Academy & Golden Globe Award Nominee Maria Bakalova (as Ivana Zelníčková/Ivana Trump) and Martin Donovan (as Fred Trump Senior).

Originally from Iran, director Ali Abbasi boasts an eclectic back catalogue of films. Influenced by the surrealism and magical realism of South-American authors Gabriel García Márquez and Carlos Fuentes, the director made an impression with his film Border, presented in the Official Selection in Protected content . The Apprentice, meanwhile, takes on a completely different tone, and is firmly rooted in reality, much like his previous feature Holy Spider.
