A dazzling, high-tech thriller based on the Ray Bradbury novel of the same name, this HBO Film depicts an American future devoid of truth, where celebrity "firemen" engage in televised search-and-destroy missions to burn books and abolish art, culture and history. In this paranoid world, a zealous fireman (Michael B. Jordan)--in the process of being groomed to succeed his long-time captain (Michael Shannon)-meets a young informant (Sofia Boutella) and agrees to assist an underground group with bold plans to preserve thousands of classic works, if they can only outwit the all-seeing forces intent on destroying them.
