Description
¿The Piano Teacher¿ is a powerful and controversial new drama from the award winning filmmaker Michael Haneke. Isabelle Huppert (Merci pour le Chocolat, Amateur) gives a performance of astounding emotional intensity as Erika Kohut, a repressed woman in her thirties who teaches piano at the Vienna Conservatory and lives with her tyrannical mother (Annie Girardot), with whom she has a volatile love-hate relationship. But when one of Erika's students, the handsome and assured Walter Klemmer (Benoit Magimel), attempts to seduce her, the barriers that she has carefully erected around her claustrophobic world are shattered, unleashing a previously inhibited extreme and incontrollable desire.
