SYNOPSIS

Fresh off their massive success with The Brutalist - which scored 10 nominations and 3 wins at last year’s Oscars - Brady Corbet and Mona Fastvold will join us for a Q&A to discuss their work together on the Natalie Portman-starring Vox Lux, along with actor Daniel London and producer David Hinojosa, on Friday, June 13. Conversation moderated by Charles Bramesco.

 

35mm print! In 1999, teenage Celeste (Raffey Cassidy) survives a violent tragedy.  After singing at a memorial service, Celeste transforms into a burgeoning pop star with the help of her songwriter sister (Stacy Martin) and a talent manager (Jude Law).  Celeste's meteoric rise to fame and concurrent loss of innocence dovetails with a shattering terrorist attack on the nation, elevating the young powerhouse to a new kind of celebrity: American icon, secular deity, global superstar.

 

By 2017, adult Celeste (Natalie Portman) is mounting a comeback after a scandalous incident that derailed her career. Touring in support of her sixth album, a compendium of sci-fi anthems entitled “Vox Lux,” the indomitable, foul-mouthed pop savior must overcome her personal and familial struggles to navigate motherhood, madness and monolithic fame in the Age of Terror.

Newly announced - the feature film will be preceded by Protect You + Me.  
The reminder of a long forgotten event, combined with a challenging situation, provokes a man to extreme reaction while at a dinner with his mother. Starring Daniel London. (Dir. Brady Corbet, DCP, 10 min.)
