Description
[Machine Translation] Why did you do it? An 85-year-old grandfather and his 13-year-old granddaughter. A big "secret" that attracts them both. Haneke asks us the same question. The long-awaited new film by Michael Haneke, who won the Palme d'Or, the highest award at the Cannes Film Festival, twice for "The White Ribbon" and "Love, Amour"! --The Roland family, a bourgeoisie family living in Calais, has three families living in an elegant mansion. The patriarch of the family is Georges, who used to be a builder, but has retired due to his advanced age. His daughter Anne has taken over the family business and is a lawyer for the bank with which the family does business. Anne's son Pierre, who has been entrusted with the executive director's position, is not a businessman at all. Anne's younger brother Thomas is a doctor who has not taken over the family business, and he and his young wife Anais have a young son, Paul. The family sits around the same table and eats together, indifferent to each other's thoughts and feelings; they only share their individual secrets and resentments on social networking sites and e-mail. In the midst of this family, Haneke sheds light on the reunion between grandfather Georges and his estranged granddaughter Ev. The aging grandfather, who pretends to be a blur when he is not pleased with the situation, is actually quite perceptive of Ev, who wears the shadow of death around her. On the other hand, Ev, abandoned by her father at an early age, starved for love, and haunted by death, is also looking at the world with a wary eye. The tension between these two men with their secrets fills the air. Georges' shocking confession pries open Ev's closed door.
