V FOR VENDETTA 20TH ANNIVERSARY

Freedom! Forever! From the Wachowskis and Joel Silver, the masterminds behind The Matrix trilogy, comes another intriguing, action-packed fantasy-thriller. The premise: Great Britain has become a fascist state. Now, a shadowy freedom fighter known only as "V" (Hugo Weaving- The Matrix trilogy) begins a violent guerrilla campaign to destroy those who have embraced totalitarianism. In his quest to liberate England from its oppressive ideological chains, "V" recruits a young woman (Natalie Portman - Star Wars: Episodes I-III) he's rescued from the secret police to join him on an epic adventure to execute a seemingly impossible task. Based on the DC Comics/Vertigo graphic novel written by Alan Moore and illustrated by David Lloyd. Before the movie, Director James McTeigue returns to V for Vendetta twenty years later for an exclusive introduction reflecting on the films & art that shaped it, the enduring mythology of V, and why its ideas of freedom, identity, and resistance continue to resonate today.
