Deux cousins originaires de New York (Jesse Eisenberg & Alexander Skarsgård) se lancent dans la folle aventure de construire un câble de fibre optique entre le Kansas et le New Jersey, pour être à l'avance d'une milliseconde sur les transactions à la bourse. Leur aventure se fait sans compter la rancune de leur ancienne patronne (Salma Hayek), qui fera tout pour les arrêter. (dossier de presse)<\/p>
Cousins from New York, Vincent (Jesse Eisenberg) and Anton (Alexander Skarsgård) are players in the high-stakes game of high frequency trading, where winning is measured in milliseconds. Vincent is the hustler and Anton is the brains","together they push each other and everyone around them in their quixotic quest to attain the ultimate American Dream.<\/p>
\r\nEmbarking on the Herculean task of installing a fiber-optic cable in a straight line between Kansas and New Jersey - so they can yield faster trades and greater riches - the cousins clash with their rapacious former boss, Eva Torres (Salma Hayek), a hedge-fund manager who tries to beat them at their own game using a rival technology. Racing against time, navigating heavy machinery, stubborn landowners, and the elements, Vincent and Anton move mountains to cut through America and get rich faster - only to find redemption and renewal at the end of the line.<\/p>
\r\nFrom writer-director Kim Nguyen (War Witch, nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film) comes a modern-day David & Goliath story that is equal parts financial thriller and human drama, excavating the pitfalls and perils of two men who risk everything in order to have it all.<\/p>
