Description

In this Gatsby adaptation, set to a backdrop of Jazz Age melodies, Jay Gatsby's pursuit of the American Dream unfolds. Scenes blend seamlessly with music, portraying his unwavering belief in hard work and opportunity. Yet, as his life flashes before his eyes in the tragic climax, we witness the realisation that the dream he chased came at a cost too high.
