The Idiots
Idioterne
1998
Synopsis
In the Copenhagen suburbs, a commune aims to disrupt bourgeois society by spontaneously feigning physical or mental disabilities in public—including a new recruit motivated by a secret sorrow.
Editorial
A controversy stormed, the Dogme 95 movement took center stage, an angry critic got kicked out of the Cannes screening, and when the dust settled, Lars von Trier was left with a triumph. Both graphic and shockingly comical, The Idiots is recognized today as one of the provocateur’s very best.
