A village in Protestant northern Germany. 1913-1914. On the eve of World War I. The story of the children and teenagers of a choir run by the village schoolteacher, and their families: the baron, the steward, the pastor, the doctor, the midwife, the tenant farmers. Strange accidents occur and gradually take on the character of a punishment ritual.

One look at this film clip and others at: http://storytellertrailers.blogspot.com/2009/05/das-weie-band-white-ribbon.html will demonstrate why Michael Hanekes' brilliant film took Cannes top prize this year. There are other clips at the link, but this one is my favorite, showing the incredible black and white cinematography and the meticulous attention to detail that illustrated a story described as a "fascism parable."
