When a computer virus destroys a long-gestating script, two directors decide to write a new one about a strange and mysterious disease that is sweeping across Europe. During the creative process, a real epidemic breaks out. This prophetic black humour horror comedy was born out of a bet that Lars von Trier would not be able to make a film for $150 000. In the second part of the European Trilogy, the director, who plays the main character himself, explores the sad history of a Europe beset by disease and war. N-16 The film is in Danish and English with Lithuanian subtitles.
