-'''Michael Haneke''' (born [[March 23]], [[1942]] in [[Munich]], [[Bavaria]], [[Germany]]) is a controversial [[Austria|Austrian]] filmmaker and writer best known for his [[bleak]] and, for some, [[disturbing]] style. His films often document problems and failures in modern society. Haneke has worked in [[television]]‚ [[theater]] and [[Film|cinema]]. He is also known for [[Political cinema|raising social issues in his work]]. His next film is [[Happy End (2017 film)|''Happy End'']].  
-== Themes == 
-:''"My films are intended as polemical statements against the American 'barrel down' cinema and its dis-empowerment of the spectator. They are an appeal for a cinema of insistent questions instead of false (because too quick) answers, for clarifying distance in place of violating closeness, for provocation and dialogue instead of consumption and consensus."''  
-::-- From "''Film as catharsis''", ISBN 3901272003 
-Rejecting what is considered to be standard conventions of timing, the build up of suspense and logical plotting, Haneke is not worried about inducing boredom, irritation and frustration. His films are considered to be very immediate without being simplistic. Arguably concerned with a society that no longer knows how to love—or for that matter how to hate—his films are in many ways an attempt to resharpen the audience's feelings and responses to the world. +'''''Happy End''''' is an 2017 film written and directed by [[Michael Haneke]].
