In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff and mayor sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.
When a murder shatters the fragile order of a town on lockdown in the summer of 2020, residents turn violently on each other as Sheriff Joe Cross (Joaquin Phoenix) and Mayor Ted Garcia (Pedro Pascal) face off in a battle that threatens to rip the town apart. Brought to life by a powerhouse ensemble cast (Emma Stone, Austin Butler) and with filmmaker Ari Aster at the helm, EDDINGTON is a culture-shaking event film – provocative, urgent, and impossible to ignore – that unpacks the forces that led to where we are today. Described as a must-see cinematic lightning bolt, EDDINGTON is only in cinemas August 21.
