Peter Greenaway

A modern fable and political satire on the Thatcher years in Britain set at Le Hollandais, a gourmet restaurant. The wife of a barbaric crime boss engages in a secretive romance with a gentle bookseller between meals at her husband's restaurant, all observed by the cook. This nightly display of opulence, decadence and gluttony leads to murder, torture and revenge.

Three women who have the same name methodically rid themselves of unwanted husbands.

Incorporates performance and conversations with composer singer, dancer, filmmaker, choreographer, performance artist Meredith Monk.
