See below for additional related events

Haneke’s moody but visually beautiful film is an icy and unsettling portrait of humanity gradually undone by the privations visited by an unspecified environmental catastrophe. Masterfully composed and lit, the film creates a spookily uncanny but almost medieval world sculpted by darkness rather than light.

Starring Isabelle Huppert, director Patrice Chéreau and Béatrice Dalle, it is a pivotal work in Haneke’s development as a filmmaker and leads toward the more rounded and human-centred dramas (such as Caché and The White Ribbon) that would define the crucial next phase of his career.
