Caché (Hidden)

Synopsis

George and Anne are a complacent, well-to-do Parisian couple who are given a video which suggests they are being watched by persons unknown. Tension escalates as they also receive disturbing, childlike pictures, and it gradually becomes apparent that the threat might be connected to something in George's past that he has kept well "hidden". As well as being a creepy, brilliantly claustrophobic thriller with one extremely shocking burst of violence, director Michael Haneke's acclaimed film is also a metaphor for France's buried colonial past.
