Synopsis

Four middle-aged friends who are tired of life retreat to a country mansion where they determine to eat themselves to death. They are soon joined by women and a local school teacher. The quartet engage in a nihilistic orgy of food and sex, all in the name of hedonistic self-destruction.

MUBI's take

Marco Ferreri’s notorious feast film is a depraved cult classic of culinary cinema. This hilariously blistering critique of bourgeois excesses won the FIPRESCI prize after an infamously divisive screening at Cannes Film Festival. Starring screen legends Marcello Mastroianni and Michel Piccoli!
