Austrian filmmaker Michael Haneke's ("Funny Games") multi-layered look at personal and racial conflicts in the new Europe follows a variety of Paris residents through a string of incidents─from a subway encounter to a tussle with the police─as their lives intersect. Exploring how failures of communication can easily sow public discord, Haneke's film was noted for its use of challenging long takes. Juliette Binoche, Thierry Neuvic, and Ona Lu Yenke star. 117 min.
