Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to join us for a theatrical screening of the Prime Video Series Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat (Episodes 7 & 8), followed by an in-person conversation with Anthony Norman (Non-Actor/Hero) and Jake Szymanski (Director/Executive Producer), moderated by Debra Birnbaum (Editor-in-Chief, Gold Derby).

Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat is a documentary-style comedy that captures a corporate offsite event at a family-owned hot sauce company from the perspective of Anthony, a recently hired temporary worker. Unbeknownst to Anthony, the entire experience is staged, every colleague around him is performing a role, and each moment – whether in conference rooms or during downtime – has been meticulously orchestrated. As the founder prepares to step down, the getaway transforms into a clash between big corporate ambitions and small business values, with control of the company hanging in the balance.
