For most people, just to see behind the scenes footage of this documentary, will be a delight. But it also provides a much deeper look inside the world of filmmaking including some moments of insight that are hard to believe.
This documentary combines exclusive interviews with footage shot on location in winter covered Sweden e.g. from special made confession boxes as seen in Catholic churches. In these ‘boxes of truth’ all actors and Von Trier during the whole shooting process talked, cried, laughed, sung and confessed directly to the camera. (official distributor synopsis)
