The village of the damned

Review: The White Ribbon

The village of the damned

Mysterious events disturb the seemingly well-ordered life in a German village in 1913. A sumptuous black-and-white film crowned with the Cannes Palme d'Or 2009 

"An ideal raised to the status of an absolute becomes inhuman"

Interview: Michael Haneke • Director

"An ideal raised to the status of an absolute becomes inhuman"

The Austrian director reveals to journalists certain aspects of his method, whilst maintaining, much like his film, an element of mystery as to the possible interpretations of his work
