WHAT’S IT ABOUT?
Michèle (Huppert), a successful businesswoman, is attacked in her own home by a masked assailant.

Isabelle Huppert is astonishing in an Oscar-nominated performance that defines her career for a new generation, and marks the welcome return of celebrated Dutch director Paul Verhoeven.
