Synopsis

George, host of a television show focusing on literature, receives videos shot on the sly that feature his family, along with disturbing drawings that are difficult to interpret. He has no idea who has made and sent him the videos. Progressively, the contents of the videos become more personal, indicating that the sender has known George for a long time.

Cinema Atlas Connection
I remember when I saw Caché from Haneke, it had a profound impact on me. I really felt like this guy was creating something unique and strong. He influenced me a lot, his overall work. And yes, it’s one of the influences on Enemy.

Caché became an important film for me to look at the relationship between audience and screen, and how to involve the audience in the story.
