Director: Wes Anderson

Get ready to be swept away by Wes Anderson's latest masterpiece—a heartfelt and exhilarating journey into the intricate tapestry of family, loyalty, and ambition. This is more than just a story; it's a visceral exploration of the bonds that hold us together and the fierce passion to protect what we hold dear.

In a world of opulence and shadows, wealthy visionary Zsa-Zsa Korda makes a daring and emotional choice—passing his estate to his only daughter, a dedicated nun whose heart is torn between faith and family legacy. As Korda ventures into a new, daring enterprise, the stakes skyrocket, and suddenly their lives become a whirlwind of danger, intrigue, and betrayal. They face relentless scheming tycoons, ruthless foreign terrorists, and shadowy assassins hell-bent on destruction—all in the quest to preserve their family’s honor and history.

Directed by the visionary Wes Anderson, this breathtaking film boasts an extraordinary cast of talent that will grip your soul: Mathieu Amalric, Benicio Del Toro, Michael Cera, Riz Ahmed, Richard Ayoade, Mia Threapleton, Hope Davis, Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Jeffrey Wright, Rupert Friend, Bryan Cranston, and Bill Murray—all bringing life to a story that will stir your emotions and ignite your passion for what's truly worth fighting for.
