This chilling tale by New Wave veteran filmmaker Claude Chabrol develops into an explosive drama of secrecy and hatred.

Based on a Ruth Rendell novel, La ceremonie focuses on a quietly resentful housekeeper (Sandrine Bonnaire) who joins forces with a prying postmistress (Huppert) with her own reasons for despising her friend's employers. With Jacqueline Bisset, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and Virginie Ledoyen as the unsuspecting family. (35mm, 112 min.)
