The Apprenticeship of Donald Trump
Briefly

The Apprentice aims to capture the lesser-known side of Trump from 1973 to 1986, focusing on his early ventures and personal evolution before public persona solidified.
Despite being a subject of fascination, the Trump of 1980 is overshadowed by the controversial personality he has become, fueling him as both a real character and a performer.
Sebastian Stan’s portrayal in Ali Abbasi's film attempts to reveal the complexity of Trump as a 'normal' human being, navigating through a transformative period in his life.
In a world fascinated by the caricatures presented by various impersonators, the film seeks to remind audiences of the real Trump prior to his fame and notoriety.
