Artistic, sensual and sacred passions unite in Babette's Feast. On the desolate coast of Denmark live Martina and Phillipa, the beautiful daughters of a devout clergyman who preaches salvation through self-denial. Both girls sacrifice youth passion to faith and duty, and even many years after their father's death, they keep his austere teachings alive among the townspeople. But with the arrival of Babette, a mysterious refugee from France's civil war, life for the sisters and their tiny hamlet begins to change. Soon, Babette has convinced them to try something truly outrageous - a gourmet French meal! Her feast, of course, scandalises the local elders. Just who is this strangely talented Babette, who has terrified this pious town with the prospect of losing their souls for enjoying too much earthly pleasure?
