Home Director: Ursula Meier Writer: Ursula Meier, Alice Winocour, Antoine Jaccoud, Olivier Lorelle Cast: Isabelle Huppert, Olivier Gourmet, Adelaide Leroux, Madeleine Budd Distributor: Lorber Films Country: France Theatrical Release Date: November 27, 2009 Synopsis: In Ursula Meier’s stunning theatrical debut (the official Swiss submission for this year’s Academy Award for Best Foreign Film), a family’s peaceful existence is threatened when a busy highway is opened right next to their isolated property. As the sounds and fumes of the modern world begin to fill their home, each member of the family (including Isabelle Huppert and Oliver Gourmet, both in tour-de-force performances) finds themselves pushed to dangerous extremes.
