Gwendoline Christie stars in Flux Gourmet as Jan Stevens, an eccentric and fashionable head of the Sonic Catering Institute. In the film, Jan Stevens (referred to only by her full name) hosts an artist collective that uses the sound of food in their performance art. Meanwhile, a different group of artists that Jan Stevens rejected for a residency is quietly seeking revenge against her. What transpires in during the residency is a humorous, outlandish, and sometimes unsettling peek at the collaborative artistic process mixed with an empathetic look at the people who make up at the group.
Christie is perhaps best known for her role in Game of Thrones as Brienne of Tarth, but since the conclusion of that show, she has branched out into other ventures. She can be seen next in two Netflix series: Wednesday from Tim Burton and the upcoming Neil Gaiman adaptation The Sandman. Flux Gourmet is directed by Peter Strickland and also stars Asa Butterfield and Fatma Mohamed.
