Anyone seen this yet? I watched Haneke's "Funny Games" last week on Netflix Instant, and enjoyed it. Markus Schleinzer's film looks like a more subtle, if possibly more truly disturbing work.

looks very interesting.

i worked on a doc concerning a judicial scandal, that turned into a witch hunt that implicated scores of people associated with the running of their small city. it's a far more pedestrian subject than that of the film you mention, but the "banality of evil" was really fascinating. to me. not quite as much to the producers.
