"Not many movies like this get made, because not many filmmakers are so bold, angry and defiant." — Roger Ebert
Lars von Trier's drama put the "Dogme" school of stripped-down filmmaking on the world cinema map. In a religious Scottish coastal town, pure-hearted Bess (Emily Watson) finds her devotion to her Danish husband Jan (Stellan Skarsgård), an oilrig worker, tested to extremes when, after suffering near-total paralysis following an accident, he urges her to seek sexual gratification with other men. Bess follows her husband's wishes to dark ends in hopes it will miraculously heal her husband.
