Revolutionary Road

Set in 1950s Connecticut, Revolutionary Road follows Frank and April Wheeler, a seemingly perfect couple whose unfulfilled ambitions and deep dissatisfaction with suburban life push their marriage to a breaking point. As April dreams of escaping to Paris for a fresh start, their conflicting desires and brutal honesty tear apart the illusions they have built around themselves. The film is a devastating portrait of disillusionment, conformity, and the quiet desperation hiding beneath the surface of the American Dream.
