This movie is a story about a forest tribe with one dominant male, one old male and the rest are all females. The rules of the tribe are the dominant male can only mate with the other females once his wife has given him an heir, which causes friction with the other females as they need to repopulate their tribe with offsprings. A male nature photographer from the city happens to find his way to the tribe. He is virile and could be the answer to the tribe's problem, but as with lion prides, the alpha male of the group won't accept him so willingly, especially if the intruder's eyes are set on his own wife.

The Invitation takes a creeping look at two simple premises: reuniting with forgotten friends and new-age spiritualism. Though one seems a bit scarier than the other, the film heightens social awkwardness to a macabre level that puts an uncomfortable look on when the social taboo of grief is put on public display.
