After the fiery death of their mother, Joan (Anya Taylor-Joy) and her siblings, driven by a mysterious volcanic prophecy, believe it is their duty to cleanse the Earth. Their radical group hijacks a glamorous charity gala and takes three unlikely hostages for a sacrificial ritual: their hero, movie star Mike Tyler (Chris Evans); their villain, pragmatically cold billionaire Ben Bracken (Vincent Cassel); and their lover, an unlucky performer named Katie (Ambika Mod). As the night descends into chaos, both an inward journey and an outward adventure ensue, where the line between performance and belief, salvation and sacrifice, begins to blur.
Thought-provoking, visually arresting, and powered by a kinetic original script co-written with Will Arbery (SUCCESSION), Romain Gavras’ English-language debut SACRIFICE is a satirical action-adventure and visually explosive epic led by a magnetic star-studded ensemble also including Salma Hayek Pinault, Yung Lean and Charli XCX.
