Salma Hayak gives an extraordinary performance in the film Beatriz at Dinner. The movie tackles such critical issues as race, classism, and environmental destruction. Salma plays Beatriz, an immigrant from a poor town in Mexico, has drawn on her innate kindness to build a career as a spiritual health practitioner in Los Angeles. Doug Strutt (John Lithgow) is a cutthroat, self-satisfied billionaire real estate developer. When these two opposites meet at a dinner party, their worlds collide and neither will ever be the same.
