Eileen seems distant and indifferent. While that's no surprise given the grim nature of her job at a Boston juvenile detention centre, she's also ostracized by her co-workers for her detached nature. Until one day, counsellor Dr. Rebecca St. John joins the prison staff and turns her daily work routine upside down. Rebecca's glamorous and enigmatic presence casts a spell over Eileen. The two women grow closer and her relationship with Rebecca awakens secret desires in Eileen. The atmospherically dense mystery thriller EILEEN brings Ottessa Moshfegh's novel of the same name to life. Starring Thomasin McKenzie and Anne Hathaway, it's a remarkable success! Audience favourite from Sundance.
