“After a thirteen-year absence, a great American director returns with an ambitious vision." The New Yorker.
Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Cast: Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, Nathalie Emmaneul, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight

MEGALOPOLIS is a Roman Epic set in an imagined Modern America. 
The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina, 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. 

Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero, the mayor's daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves. 

""Operatic and sprawling. Grand not grandiose. And crafted to be seen on a large theater screen. It's passionate filmmaking, a must for anyone who claims to be a true movie cinephile" ABC RN

OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2024 BERLIN FILM FESTIVAL (In Competition)
OPENING NIGHT GALA - 2024 GERMAN FILM FESTIVAL

Featuring a captivating central performance from Babylon Berlin star Liv Lisa Fries, the hugely affecting new historical drama from multi award-winning director Andreas Dresen depicts the remarkable true story of a young German woman drawn into the anti-Nazi resistance movement during World War II.

Anchored by the extraordinary Fries, who perfectly embodies a type of everyday heroine driven only by decency and what’s in her heart, Dresen’s compelling and humanistic film echoes the themes and impact of The Lives Of Others, as a war drama that – without depicting a single bullet being fired - speaks more eloquently about courage than many battle-heavy spectacles. 

FROM HILDE, WITH LOVE is a deeply moving and inspiring achievement.

Excellent. Works beautifully. Liv Lisa Fries delivers a performance of joy and resilience.
Go see it.
