Analysis of Hidden/Cache

This film was created by a French Director.
The film has a slow start which helps to build tension.
The setting is an ordinary situation which then bares witness to an extraordinary circumstance.
The antagonist has power over people by watching. This is a convention which is common to thrillers which make use of stalkers.
The antagonist also leads the protagonist into a situation they have no control over. This use of a loss of control is very key to the building of a thriller since it makes the viewer feel uneasy.
The film has a slow start which can seem boring but it also makes you wonder what you're looking out for as the audience begins to realise that something isn't right and they expect something to suddenly happen. This creates and air of confusion.
