Hidden at GFT

20 – 26 June, 2025

A married couple’s comfortable lifestyle begins to implode after they start to receive surveillance tapes of their home in Michael Haneke’s gripping psychological thriller, starring Juliette Binoche and Daniel Auteuil.

Four years after The Piano Teacher won a trio of prizes in Cannes, Michael Haneke’s disturbing psychological thriller opened the festival – and took home another three awards, including Best Director. Anne and Georges (Juliette Binoche and Daniel Auteuil) enjoy a bourgeois lifestyle with their son Pierrot (Lester Makedonsky) until their comfort is shattered by the arrival of a videotaped surveillance recording of their own house. Others follow after, some accompanied by childish but no less unsettling drawings. Initially baffled by the arrivals, soon the tension between the pair grows as questions of festering guilt begin to take hold. A grippingly tense triumph.

Screening Sunday 23 June introduced by Michael Quinn</h3?

The screening on Sunday 22 June will be introduced by Michael Quinn, a researcher in the Philosophy of Education. Released 20 years ago, Hidden (Caché) continues to be a relevant exploration of post-coloniality and an interrogation of how collective and personal memory correlate. In his introduction Michael Quinn will briefly discuss how Hidden is ostensibly a mystery story, but also presents an educational opportunity to reflect on how we remember, forget and experience guilt both individually and collectively.
