Spanning the four years of the Civil War, from 1861 to 1865, the adventure will take audiences on an journey across a country at war with itself, experienced through the lens of families, friends and foes all attempting to discover what it truly means to be the United States of America.

The Farnsworth Invention

"The Farnsworth Invention" is a biopic of inventor Philo Farnsworth, who, at the age of 21, was the first man to produce and transmit a moving television picture. After a series of prolonged legal battles with the broadcasting giant RCA over the invention, Farnsworth eventually lost his patent rights and died in obscurity.

The New World

"The New World" is an epic adventure set amid the encounter of European and Native American cultures during the founding of the Jamestown Settlement in 1607. Inspired by the legend of John Smith (Colin Farrell) and Pocahontas, acclaimed filmmaker Terrence Malick transforms this classic story into a sweeping exploration of love, loss and discovery, both a celebration and an elegy of the America that was…and the America that was yet to come. Against a historically accurate Virginia backdrop, Malick has set a dramatized tale of two strong-willed characters-a passionate and noble young native woman and an ambitious soldier of fortune-torn between the undeniable requirements of their civic duty and the inescapable demands of the human heart.
