When humans discover the giant planet Melancholia is on a collision course with Earth, sisters Justine (Kirsten Dunst) and Claire (Charlotte Gainsbourg) are preparing for Justine’s wedding. While composed Claire panics, depressive Justine embraces the end calmly. Lars von Trier’s strange and beautiful movie depicts the end of humanity with dreamlike imagery and an epic Wagner soundtrack.
‘Leave it to von Trier to conceive an intergalactic sci-fi metaphor for a psychological disorder – and then make it work so astonishingly well.’ – Miami Herald
Presented on 35mm film prints from the NFSA collection.
