Spanning five decades, The Master Planets explores a once idolized rock star’s struggle with a legacy of evil. Peter’s dream of a career as a superstar crashes when he finds his mother’s body floating in the ocean near their New Jersey home, an apparent suicide. Peter learns the truth about his mother’s ruthless past with the Polish partisans who fought the Nazis, a truth that unravels his life. The Master Planets is at once an action-based story and a meditation on the ultimate costs of violence and revenge.
