Saturday, July 25 at 7:00 p.m.
An Evening with Traverse City-based filmmaker, Rich Brauer -- with a screening of his film, "That One Summer."
The film tells the story of a father's effort to help his young son and
his friend spend one summer making a movie based on a classic Native
American legend, The Sleeping Bear. The father, played by  Ernest
Borgnine, eventually walked out on his wife and kids. During a
bittersweet reunion with his now-grown son, the father recounts his
struggle to make time to help his son that one summer while balancing
work pressures. Mike Sullivan, who plays the son, will also be
appearing with Rich Brauer for this special evening.
Filmmaker, Rich Brauer has produced and directed a number of his
own feature films, and photographed and edited both of Jeff Daniels'
independent feature films, "Escanaba in da Moonlight" and "Super
Sucker." His company Brauer Productions, Inc. has been in business
since 1977 producing television commercials, corporate/industrial
presentations as well as feature films.
Mike Sullivan is widely known in the Midwest as a songwriter and
musician. His authentic demeanor was what attracted director Rich
Brauer to cast him in this role.
Admission to the screening and discussion with the filmmaker is $8
at the door. Snacks and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for
purchase.
