Visionary directors Anisia Uzeyman and Saul Williams' join forces with producer Lin-Manuel Miranda with their critically acclaimed Afrofuturist, cyberpunk musical.

An anti-colonialist fable that centers on Matalusa, an escaped miner, and Neptune, an intersex hacker on the run. Neptune Frost takes place in the hilltops of Burundi, where a collective of computer hackers have relocated after escaping from a nearby coltan mine.

Neptune Frost is a visually and musically dazzling film that blends beautiful cinematography, music, costumes, and design. It powerfully breaks down boundaries between language, gender, and genres.
