A film director and a script writer (performed by Lars von Trier and Niels Vørsel themselves) write a screenplay, in which an epidemic spreads about the whole world. Like the protagonist they do not notice, that a real epidemic is developing around them. Written by Fredrik Klasson <fredrik.klasson@boras.mail.telia.com>
'Epidemic' is a movie that might feel like intriguing premise wasted on some pretentious art-house gimmick. On the other hand, it is very intriguing story shot in very intriguing style. The film contains three parallel stories - two screenwriters Lars and Niels struggling with their screenplay, at the same time devastating plague starts to kill people all over the Europe, and then the events happening to the characters that our writers are creating at the moment.
Wonderful experimental film about making a film.
