Code Unknown DVD
'Code Unknown' Director: Michael Haneke (2000) Artificial Eye DVD | French w/ English subtitles
A complex film of powerful emotional force and a fascinating study of the subtle connections and barriers between people, social class, race, and the difficulty of communicating in the modern world.
On a busy Paris boulevard, a youth scornfully tosses a crumpled paper bag into the outstretched hands of a beggar woman. This is the bond which, for an instant, links several very different characters: An actress; her war photographer boyfriend; his farmer father and younger brother, who, contrary to his father's wishes has no interest in inheriting the farm; a music teacher for deaf-mute children, and his family, who originate from Africa; and a Romanian immigrant.
Special features include:
