The Idiots (Dogma 95)
Lars von Trier / DK, ES, SE, FR, NL, IT, 1998 / 110 min.
Lars von Trier as a full-blown provocateur satirising the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie. A group of people act like they have issues to provoke the citizens of a suburb – and the audience.

Lars von Trier’s comedy-drama revolves around a Danish commune whose members aim to disrupt bourgeois society by spontaneously pretending to have physical or mental handicaps in public. They want to create a better world by allowing their ‘inner idiot’ to express itself. A new recruit to the group develops into a power-hungry tyrant.
