Here’s a first official look at Beatriz at Dinner, the upcoming drama movie directed by Miguel Arteta based on a script by Mike White and starring Salma Hayek:
“Beatriz (Salma Hayek) is a miracle worker—highly sensitive with her touch, and passionately dedicated to curing pain through holistic therapy. After treating the mother of a young woman Beatriz helped recover from chemotherapy, her car breaks down, so she is invited to stay for a dinner celebrating a lucrative business deal.
An interloper inside this private enclave of the have-mores, Beatriz is politely acknowledged by the guests, with the exception of Doug, a mega brazen and successful business developer. Believing she knows him from somewhere, Beatriz becomes increasingly unsettled. Uninhibited, she questions whether Doug’s accomplishments have come at the expense of other people’s suffering—to the chagrin of the sycophantic hosts—pitting the guests into opposing forces.”

Besides Salma Hayek, the cast also includes Chloë Sevigny, Connie Britton, Jay Duplass, Nina Arianda, John Lithgow, Amy Landecker, and John Early.
