Marthe and Michel live next to an abandoned highway in rural France with their three children. But one day without warning, construction work begins on the highway, which soon becomes flooded with traffic. With the family’s tranquil lifestyle upended, they become more and more isolated in this claustrophobic drama.

What are critics saying?
A deeply disconcerting provocation about the future of civilisation: a powerfully performed vision of an insignificant humanity.
New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
This is, in its way, a horror movie -- not least because it will burrow into your own brain, as a reminder of all the ways the modern world is making you crazy, too.
Terrific performances and superb cinematography (by Claire Denis’s right hand, Agnès Godard) lift cowriter-director Ursula Meier’s feature debut above its thuddingly metaphorical premise.
The New York Times by Manohla Dargis
Home is, as with so many family stories, also something of a disaster movie: the walls shudder and crack, and eventually so do the people inside them.
Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
What happens would not make sense in many households, but in this one, it represents a certain continuity, and confirms deep currents we sensed almost from the first.
In this season of Hollywood blockbusters, small movies can get lost in the hype. Don't let that happen to Home.
