Movie 'Beatriz at Dinner', Tue, 9/26, at 6 pm, Visalia Lib



Beatriz is a Los Angeles massage therapist and holistic healer who drives to the seaside mansion of her client Cathy.

When her old Volkswagen breaks down, she receives a friendly invitation from Cathy to stay for a seemingly innocent business dinner.

As the guests arrive and the wine starts to flow, Beatriz finds herself in an escalating war of words with Doug Strutt, a ruthless real estate mogul who cares more about money than people. www.rogerebert.com/reviews/beatriz-at-dinner-2017
