Master auteur Michael Haneke returns with Isabelle Huppert and Jean-Louis Trintignant reprising their roles from AMOUR in a biting satire on bourgeois family values set in the shadow of the European refugee crisis.
While living out their days in a Calais mansion against the backdrop of the city’s increasingly turbulent refugee crisis, the well-off Laurents find themselves slowly torn apart by the surprise arrival of a young guest. In the follow-up to his Academy Award-winning (and five-time nominated) film Amour, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Haneke returns to the career-defining social and familial themes of his work in this story of the disintegration of a single bourgeois family. Anchored by powerful performances from past Haneke collaborators Isabelle Huppertand Jean-Louis Trintignant, Happy End is another unrelentingly singular work of social satire from a master filmmaker. (France/Austria/Germany, 2018, 107 min., R, French & English| Dir. Michael Haneke)
