This summer, cameras rolled on Michael Haneke‘s next movie, “Happy End,” and details were kept scarce. Starring Jean-Louis Trintignant, Isabelle Huppert, Mathieu Kassovitz and Toby Jones, the plot was said to center on a bourgeois, European family, with narrative elements about the refugee crisis on the continent. And then Huppert stoked interest even further with her intriguing description of the movie.

“It’s a portrait of a family, and everything that implies,” the actress said in August. “It’s a very quick view of a family. There’s no psychology. It’s very factual. Just the facts. It sounds like ‘Code: Unknown,’ but it’s different to that. It’s certainly more like ‘Code: Unknown’ than ‘The Piano Teacher,’ where you follow a single character. The aim is that everyone who sees it will be able to create their own film.”

More news has arrived today about the movie, with Sony Pictures Classics snapping up the North American and Latin American rights, but what we’ll be getting from “Happy End” is no more clear, with an enigmatic new logline revealed:

“All around us, the world, and we, in its midst, blind.” The film is a snapshot from the life of a bourgeois European family.

Make of that what you will. No release date yet for “Happy End” but it’s probably safe to say it will premiere at Cannes in the spring, before rolling into arthouses late next year.
