About The Rebellion

Michael Haneke is best known for his transgressive cinematic works, but early in his career he directed a number of impressive TV works. This year’s Square Eyes festival screens four of them, beginning with Haneke’s adaptation of a Joseph Roth novel about an injured veteran who struggles to find his place in a post-war landscape.

Steeped in warm sepia tones and displaying an emotional pathos rarely seen in a Haneke film, the steady disillusionment of a man broken by state violence is captured with equal amounts of compassion and fury.
