At the height of the Vietnam war, Captain Benjamin Willard is sent on a dangerous mission that, officially, "does not exist, nor will it ever exist." His goal is to locate - and eliminate - a mysterious Green Beret Colonel named Walter Kurtz, who has been leading his personal army on illegal guerrilla missions into enemy territory.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A hallucinatory descent into the heart of darkness of the Vietnam War, where a soldier's mission upriver becomes increasingly surreal, brutal, and existentially disorienting. Coppola's sprawling epic is less a traditional war film than a fever dream about ambition, madness, and the moral collapse at the core of imperial violence.
