Bach and the Gap Year Program

Jan 17, 2024

This documentary follows a group of filmmakers on a journey to capture the unique experiences of the Enlightenment Academy's gap year program in Sudbury, Ontario. The project was initiated by Bach Van Dyke, a self-proclaimed world-famous actor, director, producer, and model, who enlisted the help of a small team to bring his vision to life. Despite Van Dyke's larger-than-life persona, the documentary offers a more grounded perspective on the program and its participants. Viewers can expect to encounter a colorful cast of characters, including Dr. Raymond Cism, a social media-savvy health doctor, and the program's students, Sheen, Jake, and Butch.
