"Caché" is a thriller, probably from the beginning of the film's story-a family received a video tape, two hours in length showing a fixed picture in front of their house. Then the family received similar video tapes and postcards one after another. This kind of plot can be reminiscent of many exciting horror movies anyway. But until the end, the film did not provide an answer. What may be even more confusing for people who are not used to watching art films or experimental films is that the viewpoints of the scenes in the plotand the scenes outside the plotoften overlapped, which actually dissolves. The existence of a "hidden" camera. In other words, the "person with the camera" is God, or the director himself.
In the videotape incident in the play, the protagonist George, who is the host of a TV reading show, believes that "he" did it, and that "he" is an Algerian immigrant who grew up with him in his childhood. He hates the immigrant, because the immigrant lived in his house when he was young and "occupied his room"; the immigrant's son hated him because he"deprived the immigrants of their right to education." This kind of fear and hatred between French intellectuals and immigrants and their descendants continued, turned into a nightmare, and even ended in bloodshed. This also clearly shows the director's sensitivity and reflection on the seriousness of the immigration problem.
In the film, those daily scenes gradually put this typical middle-class intellectual family on the brink of desperation, and the sense of insecurity and mistrust that usually do not show up is completely exposed. How they and the audience will break away from the hidden memories and lives, the director did not provide an answer. He ended the whole film with a daily scene that seemed to be a voyeur. The scene seemed to imply that the hidden camera still exists and is always present. May wake up again and sting people who are increasingly numb
