In the late 1940s, writer James Agee, disillusioned by Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings and anti-communist witch-hunts, wrote a screenplay, "The Tramp's New World", inspired by Charlie Chaplin's humor and grace. The film follows Agee as he writes the screenplay, bringing his ideas to life through his imagination.
The Tramps New World
In a post-Hiroshima world, a writer's imagination brings forth a dystopian New York where the Tramp, Charlie Chaplin's beloved character, builds a harmonious community in the ruins of Central Park.
