Europa

Directed by Lars von Trier

Not one to rest on his laurels, von Trier ensured that his sophomore effort was even more successful in splitting opinions. From its opening voiceover by Max Von Sydow, through its visual fireworks,and its claustrophobic sleeping car setting, EUROPA offers a bizarre mystery tour. Following WWII, an American German returns to his job on the German railways, only to encounter dark forces at work.
