The Megalomaniacs

105 mins | Drama, Comedy | Nov. 15, 2025

What happens when desire, intellect, and ego collide under the guise of art and science? Sparks fly – and not just the cerebral kind. Sophia, a fervent archaeologist intoxicated by her own theory, is convinced that ancient amphorae can trap echoes of the past – sound waves sealed in clay, waiting to be played back like forbidden music. Enter Potter, a sardonic artisan whose hands speak the language of form, but not of faith. Their collaboration begins as scholarly curiosity and evolves into a seductive duel of wit, vanity, and power.
