It was the last film to join the Critic’s Week sidebar and dubbed as a “Special Screening”. It was a packed house at the Espace Miramar theater, where an entire film crew was on hand (minus lead actress Isabelle Huppert) for Ursula Meier‘s Home. While the premise was enough to make me actually present myself at the screening, the story of a family of five living in front of a defunct and then fully operational highway is so ill-conceived, tediously long – that I wanted to leave after the first 15 minutes. I stayed until the end. [Note: Full review coming soon].
