Given the history of Airbus aircraft, I wouldn't be surprised if the problem came down to the "fly-by-wire" flight controls. The aircraft may have freaked out and refused to allow the pilots to correct the situation. It would kind of be like you're driving your car down the road, you see a turn coming up, turn the steering wheel, on-board computer ignores your control-input, bang - you crash.
