Lars von Trier (Dancer in The Dark, Dogville) now enters the world of documentary filmmaking alongside his idol, Danish filmmaker Jorgen Leth. In 1967, Leth made a 12 minute feature film called The Perfect Human. Now, 35 years later, von Trier challenges Jorgen Leth to remake his film five times, each time with a new obstruction to force Leth to rethink the story and characters of the original film. Playing the nave anthropologist, Leth rises to the challenge set forth by von Trier in a game full of traps and vicious turns and a very surprising outcome.

  • Spiel mit Tiefgang

    Written on 15. March 2007 by SahnefilmsMember.
    This customer review refers to a alternative version.

    Die den Ausgang bildende Idee von Triers ist genial, der Rest der Gestaltung des Films fällt dann eher Leth zu, der es irgendwie schafft, aus von Triers destruktiven Vorgaben ein Meisterwerk nach dem anderen zu machen. Auch für Leute geeignet, die mit Doks und/oder Lars von Trier bisher nichts anfangen konnten, jedoch sollte man schon Freude an Kurzfilmen mitbringen. Dass Leth' Originalfilm in voller Länge in den Extras zu finden ist, bildet ein weiteres grosses Plus.
