THE APPLE INTERVIEW: APPLE ONE (dir. Erik Sharpnack)

Sat, Sep 26th, 11:30 AM @ Regal Green Hills Theater 16
Tues, Sep 29th, 7:00 PM @ Johnson Center at Belmont University 

In honor of the United States of America’s 250th year, the apple interviews is a study on what Middle Tennesseans think the American Dream is in 2026. Filmed during the first half of 2026, every interview was conducted the same way. Each person was given an apple and was asked only one question: What is the American Dream? This is only one apple from a larger group. There are more perspectives, more ideas, thoughts, dreams, but this apple feels the most relevant to right now.

What begins as an ordinary mattress-shopping trip quickly spirals into surreal horror when a couple falls asleep on a showroom bed and wakes to discover the furniture store has closed around them. As they navigate an endless maze of dimly lit aisles, a cheerful PA announcer grows increasingly sinister, exposing the couple’s deepest secrets while insinuating there’s only one way to leave: to buy a mattress. Reality begins to unravel as they search for an escape. #BestKeptSecret
