"Mountainhead," an HBO original film from Jesse Armstrong, is a satirical dive into the lives of tech billionaires, featuring a star-studded cast including Steve Carell and Jason Schwartzman. The film follows four wealthy friends on a winter retreat, where their camaraderie is tested by personal insults and escalating global tensions. Through sharp dialogue and a critical lens, it addresses pressing issues, including misinformation and the impact of technology on society. This marks Armstrong's directorial debut and is his first feature-length film post-"Succession," promising a mix of humor and existential commentary.
When the quartet reunites for a wintry getaway, Jeff (Youssef) is quick to taunt Venis for creating a company that's "racist and shitty."
As news of an international crisis unfolds on their phones and TV screens, tension mounts among the tech billionaires.
