Eddington
Hindsight is 2020.
Directed by Ari Aster
Produced by A24, Square Peg
A darkly comic neo-western satire that weaponizes small-town politics and COVID-era tensions into absurdist conflict, blending sharp social commentary with gloomy antagonism.
In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff and mayor sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico.
