Biography
The illustrious Lars von Trier, a visionary filmmaker from Denmark, has been described as the most ambitious and visually distinctive since Carl Theodor Dreyer. After studying at the Danish Film School, his first feature The Element of Crime (1984) propelled him to international attention. His unique combination of yellow-tinted monochrome cinematography and German Expressionism, with nods to the likes of Dreyer, Tarkovsky and Welles, created a memorable visual experience. His subsequent films Epidemic (1987) and Europa (1991) have been similarly ambitious, though it was his 1994 TV series The Kingdom that cemented his fame on the international stage. Combining hospital drama, ghost story and surrealism, it was a monumental success. Von Trier continues to be an influential figure in the world of film.
