In a village in Protestant northern Germany, on the eve of World War I, the children of a church and school run by the village schoolteacher and their families experience a series of bizarre incidents that inexplicably assume the characteristics of a punishment ritual. Who could be responsible for such bizarre transgressions? Leonie Benesch, Josef Bierbichler, and Rainer Bock star in this period drama directed by Michael Haneke (HIDDEN, FUNNY GAMES) which won the Palm d'Or at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.
