- Benny’s Video. As Haneke was learning to fine tune his ideas to form immersive experiences, the second installment of his “glaciation trilogy” demonstrated the depth his cautiously crafted bleakness could contain.
- Code Unknown. Hardly has any Haneke venture confounded more film audiences than his absurdly enigmatic, deviously philosophical and possibly empty “Code Unknown”.
- 71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance. The best work from any aspiring filmmaker would probably find them capturing life in utterly bizarre and random ways with the audience allowed to filter each frame through their own perspective.
- Time of the Wolf. Dystopian dramas have become as attractive to accomplished filmmakers as war films. When Haneke dabbled in the genre, he brought to it his indelible, scathing intellect.
Jul 14, 2013 · Despite having become a director for the cinema relatively late in life, Michael Haneke has today established himself as the leading Austrian and European auteur, generating a plethora of critical and scholarly discussion and with 2 Palme d’Ors and even an Oscar to his name.

‘Time of the Wolf’ might just be Haneke’s weakest work which is not a bad thing at all, coming from a man with such an inspiring vision and staggering audacity. The film is an apocalyptic drama that follows a family who returns to their homeland only to find their house occupied by strangers, one of them who would kill the husband in the family. Th...
Another one of Haneke’s weaker efforts and the final part of his ‘Glaciation’ trilogy, ’71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance’ features exactly the number of scenes its title mentions and depicts several incidents involving unrelated people that intersect in an incident in the film’s climactic act. The film works on a broken narrative with abrupt ...
‘Code Unknown’ depicts the lives of several people from different walks of life, interconnected by a single incident. The film is replete with quintessential Haneke moments; an Algerian man spitting on a French Woman’s face in public; hushed cries of immigrants all around. The central themes of the film revolve around racial tension and violence fa...
A shot-by-shot remake of his 1997 Austrian film of the same name, ‘Funny Games’, is as brilliant and affecting as its original. But what could possibly be annoying and frustrating here is the film’s blatant repetition of its message and themes its original had already dealt with. Apparently, Haneke made the film with the intention of getting his me...
I look back at this film in pure horror. The first 40 minutes of ‘Benny’s Video’ are among the most disturbing and terrifying pieces of cinema I’ve ever seen. The film depicts the troubled mind of its titular character, who is obsessed with video games and violence and begins to blur the lines between fiction and reality. However, the film does not...
One of the most harrowing character studies of all time, ‘The Piano Teacher’ tells the story of a woman, a music professor, who develops a sexual relationship with one of her pupils. Featuring one of the greatest acting performances of all time by a stunning Isabelle Huppert, ‘The Piano Teacher’ is a startling examination of repressed sexuality and...
‘The White Ribbon’ is a disquieting look at the roots of evil and the disturbing truths of our past repressed by the very forces that dictate the norms of our existence. The film depicts the lives of people in a small village in Germany during the years before World War I as a series of strange events cause havoc in the village. As you’d expect, Ha...
Haneke’s Oscar winning film, ‘Amour’, is arguably his most accessible film till date and one of the most emotionally draining cinematic experiences you’ll ever have. ‘Amour’ tells a simple story of an ageing couple living in their isolated apartment in Paris. The wife suffers from a stroke and the husband is left alone to take care of her. Such a s...
In one of the most matured, confident film debuts ever, Michael Haneke delves into the disturbed psyche of bourgeois isolation. ‘The Seventh Continent’ depicts the emotional meltdown of an Austrian upper class family, wrecked by the cycle of mundanity and isolation. Haneke uses silence to explore the feelings of estrangement and alienation experien...
A static view of a house. Absolute stillness for about three minutes. A cyclist passes through. A woman walks out of the house and heads for the day. Freezing stillness again. Voices begin to be heard. This is what happens in the famous 5 minute opening shot of ‘Cache’. In my life as a cinephile, I’ve never felt the power and uneasiness of a gaze f...
Michael Haneke is known for his precise, non-sentimental view of contemporary society, the way he conducts his actors, and his uncompromising, partly distressing narrative constructions.
Sep 28, 2009 · There endeth “The Seventh Continent,” a Michael Haneke film from 1989. Based on a real case of familial suicide, it was his first feature film, after seven works for television.
