Nymphomaniac: Volumes 1 & 2

Directed by Lars von Trier

This event is now SOLD OUT.

Tickets are now on sale for Volume 1 and Volume 2, screening separately from Fri 28 Feb.

Nymphomaniac is the highly anticipated new film from the legendary and controversial director Lars von Trier. Operatic in emotional scope and novelistic in structure, it is a sexually-charged odyssey told in double bill format across two volumes. It tells the wild and poetic story of a woman’s journey from birth to the age of 50, as told by the main character, self-diagnosed nymphomaniac Joe (Charlotte Gainsbourg). On a cold winter’s evening, charming bachelor Seligman (Stellan Skarsgård) finds Joe beaten up in an alley. He brings her home to his flat where he cares for her wounds while asking her about her life. He listens intently as Joe, over the next 8 chapters, recounts the lusty branched-out and multifaceted story of her life, rich in associations and interjecting incidents.
