Summary

Set in New York during the Jazz Age, this new adaptation tells the tragic tale of self-made millionaire Jay Gatsby. Consumed with desire for his former lover, Daisy Buchanan, Gatsby draws new neighbor Nick Carraway into his desperate pursuit to win her back — and into their world of lavish wealth, wild parties, and free-flowing liquor.

Recorded at The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood in July 2023.
