Step into the whimsical world of "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie," where a seemingly ordinary dinner party turns into a surreal and comedic journey unlike any other. Director Luis Buñuel masterfully weaves a tapestry of absurdity as an upper-class group finds their attempts to dine together constantly interrupted by a series of bizarre and unexpected events.

As the characters navigate through a maze of dreamlike sequences and eccentric encounters, the line between reality and imagination blurs, leaving both the guests and the audience questioning what is truly happening. With a touch of satire and a dash of dark humor, this film invites you to join the unconventional feast that is as tantalizing as it is perplexing. Indulge in a cinematic experience that challenges conventions and delights in the unexpected, where the charm of the bourgeoisie is anything but discreet.
