Feast of the Epiphany invokes the spirit of James Joyce’s The Dead in its portrayal of a dinner party that plays out across a snowy evening. In the film’s first half, Abby (Nikki Colange) hosts the affair inside her Brooklyn apartment as a way of helping her longtime friend, Sarah (Jessie Shelton), cope with the recent loss of a loved one. And as in Joyce’s classic (a copy of which is fleetingly glimpsed on one of the shelves inside Abby’s apartment), the party in Feast of the Epiphany is capped with the stirring of one character’s haunting memories. But where an old ballad triggers Gretta Conroy’s longing for a lost love in The Dead, it’s the simple meal prepared by Abby that reawakens Sarah’s nostalgia.
