A Most Violent Year

A searing crime drama set in New York City during the winter of 1981, statistically the most dangerous year in the city's history. Starring Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain, this gripping story plays out within a maze of rampant political and industry corruption plaguing the streets of a city in decay.

A MOST VIOLENT YEAR examines one mans determined climb up amorally crooked ladder, where simmering rivalries and unprovoked attacks threaten his business, family, and - above all - his own unwavering belief in the righteousness of his path.

Jessica Chastain was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance. Nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Female at the Film Independent Spirit Awards.

"A revelation: meticulously constructed, brilliantly acted, suspenseful and sharply written." - Claudia Puig, USA Today
