Visionary artist Cesar Catilina aspires to propel the City of New Rome into a utopian and idealistic future. In contrast, his adversary, Mayor Franklyn Cicero, clings to a backward-looking status quo, characterized by greed, vested interests, and political infighting. Caught in the middle is socialite Julia Cicero, the mayor’s daughter, whose affection for Cesar has created a conflict of loyalties, compelling her to determine what she genuinely believes is best for humanity.
