A Banquet

Quand sa fille prétend que son corps est au service d’une autorité supérieure et ne lui appartient plus, Holly imagine que c’est une nouvelle lubie de l’adolescente. Mais quand Betsey arrête de s’alimenter sans perdre de poids, Holly est obligée de se confronter aux limites de ses propres croyances.

Widowed mother Holly is radically tested when her teenage daughter Betsey experiences a profound enlightenment and insists that her body is no longer her own, but in service to a higher power. Bound to her newfound faith, Betsey refuses to eat, but loses no weight. In an agonising dilemma, torn between love and fear, Holly is forced to confront the boundaries of her own beliefs.
