Nova CarltonCINEMAS

In this exhilarating new adaptation of Michael Chabon's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, set shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War, two Jewish cousins invent an anti-fascist superhero and launch their own comic book series, hoping to recruit America into the fight against Nazism. Incorporating scintillating electronic elements and a variety of musical styles, composer Mason Bates' eclectic score moves seamlessly among the three worlds of Gene Scheer's libretto: Nazi-occupied Prague, the bustling streets of New York City, and the technicolour realm of comic-book fantasy.
