Rome, 37 CE. After assassinating his adoptive grandfather, Emperor Tiberius, Caligula seizes power and begins to dismantle the Roman Empire from within. Forty years after its release, the cult film Caligula resurfaces with a new, never-before-seen cut exploring the decadence of power through corruption, madness and depravity.
