‘Happy End’ (directed by Michael Haneke)

Who’s in it? Isabelle Huppert and Jean-Louis Trintignant 

What is it? Critics assume Happy End, the title of which has no correlation with the film’s sad conclusion, will serve as a Palme d’Or hat trick for Michael Haneke, who previously won with Amour and The White Ribbon. Although details about the film have been kept under wraps, it is set in Calais and centres around a bourgeois family whose life contrasts starkly with the refugee crisis unfolding around them.
