David and Goliath story is funny and inspiring
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23: Bermuda Docs will screen an additional showing of You’ve been Trumped at BEUI.
The film was a sellout at the Bermuda Documentary Film Festival and will be screen again on December 4 at 3pm.
You've Been Trumped is the David and Goliath story of a group of proud Scottish homeowners who take on celebrity tycoon Donald Trump.
At stake is one of Britain's last stretches of wilderness.
The flamboyant billionaire just needs to buy out a few more locals to make his dream of a luxury home, hotel and golf course development come true.
But when the Scottish government, desperate to bring jobs to the region, overturns its own environmental laws to give Mr Trump the green light, the stage is set for an extraordinary summer of discontent as the bulldozers spring into action.
Funny, inspiring and heartbreaking in turns, the film is both an entertaining can't-believe-it's-true-tale and an environmental parable for our celebrity-driven times.
The film is rated PG.
Tickets are available now at the Oceans Gift Shop at the BUEI or by calling 297-7314.[[In-content Ad]]
