English language debut from Austrian filmmaker Jessica Hausner (Amour fou, Lourdes, Hotel). Winner of the Best Actress prize at Cannes this year for Emily Beecham. Distributed by Magnolia Pictures.
Heard pretty mixed things about this which makes me really want to see it. Haven’t seen any Hausner, what’s her correlation to Haneke? Didn’t notice anything on her Wiki
Apparently she did script continuity on the original Funny Games. Haneke teaches film in Austria too so I wouldn’t be surprised if she also studied under him.
