Adrien Brody (Oscar winner, The Pianist) plays visionary architect László Toth, one of many immigrants from post-war Europe to the US.
Forced apart from his wife Erzsébet by the turmoil of war, he sets out to rebuild his life. On his own in a strange new country, László settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren recognises his talent. But power and legacy come at a heavy cost… A monumental drama, it’s an electrifying study of 20th century immigration and the experience of Jewishness. This is a big story in every sense: from Brody’s virtuoso performance – with brilliant support from the wider cast – to the superb visuals, shot on 70mm film.
