Sacrifice is a satirical thriller that blends elements of crime thrillers with dark comedy. The film unfolds at a glamorous environmental gala in Greece, where an action-movie star, Mike Tyler (Chris Evans), seeks redemption, and a billionaire, Braken (Vincent Cassel), promotes deep-sea mining. The event is disrupted by Joan (Anya Taylor-Joy), the leader of a doomsday eco-cult convinced a volcanic eruption is imminent, leading to a series of high-stakes events.
