漢尼卡奏起的一闕怨曲，為巴黎的浮生百態作了最佳的配樂。少年尚一心擺脫鄉間的老父，跑到巴黎尋找哥哥佐治展開新生活。一聲不響摸上門來，見不到去了戰地採訪的哥哥，卻遇上哥哥的女友安。被安拒於門外，尚在爭拗中猛然擲下的紙屑正中街頭流浪者，路見不平的黑人艾蒙多上前厲言責罵，卻反被警察帶返警署……。漢尼卡流動的長鏡頭輕巧不沉重，鎖定每個人生命的某一刻，從巴黎街頭一直繞到地鐵車廂內，看著他們你一言我一語，點出巴黎千奇百怪的社會問題，以及巴黎人萬花筒式的生活與煩惱。獲2000年康城影展天主教人道精神大獎。

Juliette Binoche called Michael Haneke and said she wanted him to make a film with her in France, and the resultant film is Code Unknown, his first feature in the French language. Taking a cue from 71 Fragments in its form, it offers 27 vaguely connected scenes from the varying perspectives of an actress, an African immigrant, and a war reporter from Bosnia. The film trades Haneke’s concerns with violence and media for an intricate study of the immigration dilemmas facing contemporary Europe. Staged almost exclusively in unbroken takes, some running as long as ten minutes, it continues Haneke’s study of the ways in which we are manipulated by images. Winner of the Special Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at Cannes Film Festival 2000.
