The Rebellion
(Die Rebellion)

Directed by Michael Haneke.
With Branco Samarovski, Judith Pogany, Thierry Van Werweke.
Austria, 1993, digital video, color and b&w, 105 min.
German with English subtitles.

Despite his established career on the big screen, Haneke frequently returned to work on television projects in the 1990s include this adaptation of Joseph Roth’s novel. In it, he explores the fate of a returning veteran in post-World War I Vienna who struggles (like many of Haneke’s protagonists) in an increasingly bureaucratic and technocratic world.
