Synopsis

Cheyenne, a
wealthy former rock star (
Sean Penn), now bored and listless
in his retirement embarks on a quest to find his father’s persecutor, an
ex-Nazi war criminal now hiding out in the U.S.
Learning his father is close to death, he travels to New York in the hope
of being reconciled with him during his final hours, only to arrive too late.
Having been estranged for over 30 years, it is only in death that he learns
the true extent of his father's humiliation in Auschwitz at the hands of
former SS Officer Aloise Muller - an event he is determined to avenge.
So begins a life-altering journey across the heartland of America to track
down and confront his father's nemesis. As his quest unfolds, Cheyenne
is reawakened by the people he encounters and his journey is transformed
into one of reconciliation and self discovery.
As his date with destiny arrives and he tracks down Muller, Cheyenne
must finally decide if it is redemption he seeks ....or revenge.
Starring two time Academy Award winner Sean Penn and marking the
much-anticipated English-language debut of acclaimed director Paolo
Sorrentino, THIS MUST BE THE PLACE is a gripping examination of a man
on the precipice of obsession.
