the construction stopped. Construction has renewed lately. X was supposed to have

Question 7

This question is on 3 pages. The first three images are jointly

called by a derivation of the general name of image 4. 5 was

remade as 10 for the American-audience in 2008. 6 to 9 and

11 are the newer movies of the Austro-German director, 12. All

his movies are bleak and disturbing. In 5 and 10, two

youngsters ruin the happiness of a family by torturing them. 6

sounds like what you will get as an error message when you

type in gibberish in a programming language interface. 7

sounds like a Roman Polanski movie. 9 means a treasure or a

temporary storage space in computer terminology. 11 is a

symbol of violence against women, safe motherhood, and other

related causes. Identify 12 and name the rest.
