A Banquet

A Banquet

A Banquet is an unsettling, thought-provoking, and hyper-tense psychological thriller from director Ruth Paxton.

Widowed mother, Holly (Sienna Guillory: Resident Evil franchise, Luther), is pushed to breaking point when her daughter Betsey (Jessica Alexander) develops an extreme eating disorder. She claims she has experienced a profound enlightenment where her body is in service to a higher power.

Possessed by Betsey’s illness, her family are faced with an agonising dilemma, torn between love and fear, and Holly is forced to confront the boundaries of her own belief.
