Thermae Romae Novae (2022)

In the heart of ancient Rome, we meet Lucius Modestus, a once celebrated architect now facing the dusty echoes of his past glory. His creative well has run dry, casting a shadow over his demeanor and leaving him in the cold grasp of unemployment. His concerned friends, hoping to reignite his spark, guide him to the bustling pulse of a Roman bathhouse. Amidst the noise and steam, Lucius finds no solace - until he submerges his head beneath the soothing waters. In a twist of fate, he stumbles upon a secretive conduit hidden beneath the bath's surface. This passage whisks him away to a startlingly modern Japanese bathhouse, gifting him with a flood of inspiration and knowledge seemingly centuries ahead of his era. Fueled by these futuristic visions, Lucius embarks on a quest to resurrect his career, striving to replicate the marvels he has seen. His attempts, while often imperfect reflections of his extraordinary visions, radiate with such innovation that they might just be enough to turn heads and restore his fading reputation. Step into the world of Thermae Romae Novae, where ancient Rome and modern Japan collide in a bathhouse, and one architect's destiny gets a second chance to shine.
