Directed by Neil Jordan (Interview With A Vampire, The Company Of Wolves) and starring Gemma Arterton (Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters) and Saoirse Ronan (The Host), Byzantium is an erotic horror fantasy that takes vampire mythology to a new level of modern terror. Upon the wind swept shores of a desolate coastal town stands the Byzantium guesthouse. After years of being abandoned its doors are about to be opened again by the predatory and seductive Clara (Gemma Arterton), who plans on turning the hotel into a bordello, and her young and introverted daughter, Eleanor (Saorise Ronan). But these mysterious women have a dark secret that goes back 200 years and is about to reach its ungodly and deathly climax.
