Cache (Hidden) 2005 Analysis (France)

How does the opening sequence of this film use thriller conventions ?

voyeurism - It appears that the people being filmed are vulnerable as they don't understand why they are being filmed. This shows that the people/person filming the street have the power of them as they are tracking them without them knowing.

Normal/everyday street is the scene for an extraordinary situation.

What Questions does it pose ?

why are they being filmed ?
who is filming them ?
what is the reason behind the filming ?
are these people being filmed really who they appear to be ?

How does it make the audience feel ?

Confused as the beginning is just a street being filmed with no sign of life. It also leaves us thinking who are these people being filmed.
