When a visionary architect and his wife flee post-war Europe in 1947 to rebuild their legacy and witness the birth of modern United States, their lives are changed forever by a mysterious, wealthy client.
Golden Globe winner for his work in this film, Adrien Brody gives a potent performance as a man trying to reconstruct his life, his love, and his home, all as part of the same process. The Brutalist takes us on a journey that asks some stark questions about how the march of time impacts us, how certain events give shape to our lives, and how much of ourselves we put in our work.
