The Imperator
The Imperator introduces us to an eerily familiar yet decidedly distinct parallel universe, where a fascinating collection of personalities live and love, lie and cheat, plot and scheme, and desperately try to solve their world's problems.
Samuel Sopra, a wealthy businessman harboring a quiet certitude that he'd look particularly dashing in a military uniform, has decided to run for president of a country called Columbusa.
His adult daughter Juliet, a teacher who prefers to live a "real life," has moved across the country, far from the shadow of her famous, larger-than-life father.
Columbusa is a country beset with paradoxes. Many of its own making. Some adhere to political and social positions that conflict with their own best interests.
During a series of informal gatherings, Juliet's new friends and neighbors begin sharing thoughts on solving problems. They want to make a difference. One will decide to run for the Senate.
Others suggest forming a new party.
But outside, and in secret, powerful self-interested forces are at play...and Columbusa is on the verge of autocracy.
