After decades of false starts, Francis Ford Coppola’s fearless, byzantine, and breathtaking passion-project finally strides into cinemas.

In the decadent city of New Rome, a visionary architect with mysterious powers and a tragic past sets out to build a newer, better world on top of it. Its mayor wants to stick to a more profitable and practical one, and a titanic clash of wills ensues that threatens to swallow their dreams, loved ones, and world. Conceived in the late 1970s, rooted in histories of Ancient

Rome, and revived in the belief that it was more relevant than ever, writer-director Coppola tells a spectacular, unpredictable story of creative will hurtling against every obstacle, and the epic fall of the old order. Mad, fearless, and constantly entertaining, it must be seen – in cinemas – to be believed.
