    • Synopsis
    • Michael B. Jordan and Michael Shannon star in HBO Films’ FAHRENHEIT 451. Directed by Ramin Bahrani and written by Bahrani & Amir Naderi, the film is based on Ray Bradbury's classic novel of the same name, and depicts an alternate tomorrow where media is an opiate, facts and history are rewritten and "firemen" burn books. Jordan portrays Montag, a young fireman who begins to question his beliefs and turns against his friend and mentor, Captain Beatty, played by Shannon. Sofia Boutella stars as Clarisse, an informant for Beatty who also fights to save books and encourages Montag to change.
