Megalopolis

A conflict between Cesar, a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero, who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare.

“After a thirteen-year absence, a great American director returns with an ambitious vision of a city — and a world — in need of renewal.” •New Yorker

“It is exactly the movie that Coppola set out to make — uncompromising, uniquely intellectual, unabashedly romantic, broadly satirical yet remarkably sincere about wanting not just brave new worlds but better ones.” •Rolling Stone

“Megalopolis is exactly what movies can and should be—unflinchingly earnest.” •RogerEbert.com
