After a seven-year hiatus, two-time Oscar-nominated director and Golden Globe winner Andrey Zvyagintsev (“Loveless,” “Leviathan,” and “Yelena”) makes a highly anticipated return to filmmaking with “Jupiter,” delving into the corrosive impact of unchecked power.
“Jupiter” explores the life of a wealthy Russian oligarch at the height of his power, living a live of opulence in his European villa. As he navigates complex relationships with his estranged wife, young lover, and distant teenage son, an atmosphere of impending doom hangs heavy. When disaster finally strikes, it forces a profound reckoning, leading to a deep dive into themes of power, morality, and the impermanence of success.
