About this episode
Eddington plunges us back into that familiarly distressing time of the early days of the pandemic. Directed by Ari Aster ( Hereditary and Midsommar ) Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal star as political rivals in a small southwest town. Their conflict collides with the news of George Floyd's murder, which brings tensions to a full-on boil for the whole community.
