Nominated by BAFTA for "Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer" (Ralph Feinnes)
A clever contemporary adaptation of Shakespeare's play of political power and intrigue, directed by and starring Ralph Fiennes.
The country is at war and Caius Martius (Ralph Feinnes), a famous general both admired and feared, is planning a career in politics. Despite the misery of the population for which he has minimal compassion, his path to personal glory seems assured - yet the emotions behind the authority and power may prove his undoing.
From bloody battle scenes to TV debates, private moments of anguish to public shows of strength, Ralph Fiennes creates a thrilling modern day adaptation of Shakespeare's play. Also starring Vanessa Redgrave, Gerard Butler and Jessica Chastain.
