Epidemic

Controversial director Lars von Trier also co-wrote and stars in this bizarre story of a director and a writer (Udo Kier) who create a script about a mysterious plague that engulfs Europe, only to find their horrific scenario coming true in real life. A dark and original horror film with the unnerving question: is the epidemic real, or is it only a dark figment of their imagination? The second film in Von Trier's 'Europa' trilogy (preceded by "The Element of Crime" and followed by "Europa") which illuminates the traumas of Europe in the future.
