FEAST ON THE NEW TEASER TRAILER FOR ‘FAMILY DINNER’, PREMIERING JUNE 10 AT THE TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL
Dinner will be served in Peter Hengl’s upcoming horror thriller, FAMILY DINNER, which will celebrate its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 10, 2022, with the filmmakers and cast in attendance.
In the film, tired of feeling down about her weight, plus-sized 15-year-old Simi (Nina Katlein) heads to her aunt Claudia’s house for Easter weekend. Claudia (Pia Hierzegger) is a popular nutritionist who’s written best-selling health books, so for Simi, spending a few days together could help change her diet and inspire weight loss. What should’ve been a nice holiday weekend with family, however, quickly reveals itself to be anything but. Simi’s cousin, Filipp (Alexander Sladek), is curiously hostile towards her, while Filipp’s stepdad, Stefan (Michael Pink), is curiously the opposite towards Simi, all while Claudia’s dietary guidance verges on becoming overly militant. What’s causing everyone to act so strangely and aggressively? The answers are even worse than Simi’s worst nightmares.
Screenings will be on Friday, 6/10 at 9:00pm - Village East Cinema (World Premiere), Saturday, 6/11 at 9:45pm - Village East Cinema, and Wednesday, 6/15 at 8:15pm - Tribeca Film Center, and filmmakers and cast will be in attendance for all three festival screenings. More information can be found here.
FAMILY DINNER is written and directed by Peter Hengl, executive produced by Annick Mahnert, Ant Timpson, and co-produced by Alexander Glehr and Johanna Scherz.
