Nominated for best first film at the Césars (the French Oscars), Ursula Meier’s Home offers a new take on the road movie with Isabelle Huppert and Olivier Gourmet in tow.

As casually odd as it is unsettlingly funny, Home features Huppert (The Piano Teacher) and Gourmet (of the Dardenne brothers’ films) as a couple living in a ramshackle house at the very edge of a derelict highway. In this French-Swiss director’s version of a road movie, the characters don’t move at all—that is, until a construction crew shows up to shake their house out from under them. (98 mins., 35mm)

Screening first is Austrian director Josef Dabernig’s Hotel Roccalba, a wryly perplexing short about the residents of what may or may not be an Italian Alpine hotel. (10 mins., 35mm)
