The fascination with crime: In what is his latest feature film to date, Lars von Trier definitively confirms his reputation as a provocateur, a reputation that has only grown over the years. “Every murder is a work of art,” Jack declares in conversation with the mysterious Verge. Over the course of 12 years, he repeatedly sets out and kills people at will, their bodies piling up in his cold store. He truly has great plans for them … By the time Jack compares himself to the great mass murderers of history, the parallels between the author and the anti-hero are impossible to miss. Brutal humour meets calculated shocks. 150 minutes full of moral transgressions in a world that has long since lost its morals – and thus all the more so: a film of our time.
