Nymphomaniac: Vol. I

Why we chose it

Charlotte Gainsbourg and Stellan Skarsgård star in Lars von Trier’s controversial film about sex, which is never once meant to be arousing. Its early draw was the stars’ faces grafted onto their porn doubles’ bodies in post-production, but von Trier’s cinema thrives on false leads.

Synopsis

A man finds a young woman lying beaten in a doorway and takes her home. Joe tells him she is a bad person and begins her story, going right back to her father, their walks in the woods and the day she lost her virginity to a boy. Soon she is recounting a bet with a friend over which of them could sleep with more strangers before the train reached the end of the line.
