What Is Triangle of Sadness About?
Celebrity model couple Carl (Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (Charlbi Dean) are invited on a luxury cruise for the uber-rich. And in return, all they have to do is promote it on social media. So far so good.
But led by the unhinged boat captain (Woody Harrelson), what first appears as an influencer's trip of a lifetime quickly turns catastrophic.
When a raging storm hits, and the yacht is attacked by pirates, the survivors are left stranded on a desert island and fighting for survival.
However, not everything is as it seems in this brilliantly satirical comedy that will leave you thinking long after the credits have rolled.
