A Hungarian-Jewish architect, trained in the Bauhaus tradition, reaches America in 1947 hoping to start again. A rich Pennsylvania industrialist offers him a chance to build something monumental. The film is a long, ambitious drama about art, money and the price of belonging.
Why it matters in cinema history
A defining film of the 2020s revival of large-format, long-form cinema, and a deliberate return to the ambitious American epics of the 1960s and 70s, made outside the studio system.
Watch with intention
Watch it as a film about creative work: who pays for it, who shapes it, and who gets to be proud of it.
