Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Starring: Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito and Nathalie Emmanuel
MEGALOPOLIS is a Roman Epic fable set in an imagined Modern America. The City of New
Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina (Adam Driver), a genius artist
who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero
(Giancarlo Esposito), who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating
greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero
(Nathalie Emmanuel), the mayor’s daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties,
forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.
“An impressive film with an idiosyncratic soul.” Morning Star
