Feast follows a comfortable North American family as they contend with compounding global crises and the end of things as we know them. Each member of the family deals with the coming troubles in their own way. Twenty-something daughter Isabel turns to activism. Her mother Julia fortifies their home in preparation. And her father Mark lets his increasingly extractive foodie cravings precipitate the family's unravelling as he turns to super-competent, underemployed fixer and logistics genius Chukwuemeka Okonkwe for help satisfying his urge to consume more. Moving from North America to Beirut to Mombasa, with stops along the way at Starbucks, the Centre for Avant-Garde Geography, and a cave on the island of Lampedusa, Feast spans the globalized world and beyond, offering a wild, magic-realist take on the uncertainties and anxieties of the early twenty-first century.
Cast of 2 women, 1 Black man, and 1 man
