La Pianiste (The Piano Teacher) is one of Michael Haneke’s most provocative and unforgettable films. Featuring a fearless, award-winning performance by Isabelle Huppert, this psychological drama explores the hidden desires and emotional turmoil of Erika Kohut, a respected piano professor at the Vienna Conservatory whose meticulously controlled life begins to unravel when a younger admirer enters her world. 25th annoversary screening!
Adapted from Elfriede Jelinek’s controversial novel, La Pianiste is a gripping portrait of repression, obsession and the struggle for emotional control. Haneke’s precise and unsettling direction, combined with Huppert’s extraordinary performance, creates a film that is as challenging as it is compelling.
Winner of the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival, where both Isabelle Huppert and Benoît Magimel received acting awards, La Pianiste remains a landmark of contemporary European cinema—disturbing, complex and impossible to forget. A must-see for admirers of daring filmmaking and exceptional acting.
