Secret Mall Apartment Premieres in Durham

See SECRET MALL APARTMENT—a sneakily brilliant, award-winning documentary film that’s as fun as it is unbelievable. Opens Friday May 9 only at Carolina Theatre!

SECRET MALL APARTMENT, directed by Jeremy Workman and executive produced by Jesse Eisenberg, tells the bonkers true story of eight young Rhode Island artists who built and lived in a secret apartment inside their busy local mall from 2003 to 2007. Far more than just a wild prank, the secret apartment became a deeply meaningful place for its inhabitants. It was a personal expression of defiance against local gentrification, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art, a clubhouse in which large-scale charitable art projects were planned, and, finally, a 750 square-foot "F you" to The Man.
