Last and First Men (2020) - Modern Romanticism (A Tribute to Jhann Jhannsson)

Last and First Men (2020), directed by Jóhann Jóhannsson, starring Tilda Swinton, is more than a typical avant-garde, experimental film. It's a reimagining and a modern visualization of the Romanticism movement popularized in the 19th Century. It takes inspiration not only from the 1930 novel by Olaf Stapledon of the same name, but also the art, literature and nihilistic philosophy of the Romantics.
