The Michael Haneke Collection is composed of items of various provenance. The largest share stems from Haneke's personal archive.
The second, smaller part comes from production companies Wega Film (Vienna), Les Films du Losange (Paris) and mk2 (Paris).
The holdings were supplemented by Haneke-related materials which were already part of the documentation collection of the
Film Museum.

This extensive body of material currently consists of over 1700 dossiers categorized and arranged by subject matter. Shortly
after arriving at the Film Museum, the objects were entered into a database and described in detail. The database allows for
precise research and is consulted by international scholars and authors of books on Haneke on a regular basis.
Beginning with the earliest documents relating to Haneke's television work in the 1970s, the collection extends to the present
day and continues to grow with the inclusion of recent materials following each new production. It encompasses Haneke's entire
oeuvre, i.e., his film and television productions as well as his work as a theater director.
