War hero General Coriolanus (Ralph Fiennes) is poised to become a powerful leader within the republic but is outmanoeuvred by political opponents and banished. Bitter and vengeful, Coriolanus swears allegiance to the enemy Aufidius (Gerard Butler) and returns to Rome at the head of an invading army. In his directorial debut, Ralph Fiennes transforms Shakespeare’s Coriolanus into a brutal tale of bloody vengeance and modern warfare.
