description Force Majeure Overview

During a family ski trip in the French Alps, a father makes a split-second decision to save himself rather than his family during a controlled avalanche. The aftermath of this cowardice tears the family dynamic apart, forcing the couple to confront the fragility of their marriage and their own perceptions of gender roles. Ruben Östlunds direction is clinical and precise, turning a simple premise into a tense, hilarious, and deeply uncomfortable examination of human nature. It is a brilliant study of how quickly the veneer of civilization can crack under pressure.
