Plot
Georges and Anne Laurent, a Paris couple, begin receiving anonymous videotapes showing the exterior of their house under surveillance, along with disturbing drawings. Georges suspects someone from his childhood, and a secret he has buried about an Algerian boy is gradually stirred up. Michael Haneke's 2005 thriller, with Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche, is a chilling study of guilt, and won best director at Cannes.
Sinekatalog’s take
Michael Haneke's thriller uses surveillance tapes to dig up a family's buried guilt. Daniel Auteuil is superb, and the film's final shot lingers, asking who is watching and who is responsible.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
