Susanne Lothar and Arno Frisch played together in the original Funny Games (1997) by Michael Haneke. It took 11 years to see them again in the same movie: "The Austrian Method" opened in German movie theaters in 2008.
The production of this ensemble film, brimming with empathy, is characterized by the fact that the five episodes about the limits of psychic distress, combined by witty montage, were directed by five different directors.
