Film studios were initially unwilling to support Coppola's project, which is why he financed it himself. The director even had to sell his wineries in Northern California. Adam Driver, Natalie Emmanuel, Aubrey Plaza, Jason Schwartzman and other famous actors played in the film. The sci-fi film follows a successful architect who decides to rebuild New York after a natural disaster. The idea came to Coppola after the release of the 1979 Vietnam War drama Apocalypse Now.
