The Idiots The Idiots DVD

Lars von Trier writes and directs the second in his series of 'Dogme 95' films. Set in present-day Denmark, the timid Karen (Bodil Jorgensen) has a chance encounter with a group of eccentrics engaged in a strange, informal experiment where they pretend to be mentally disabled. Initially shocked, Karen finds herself compelled to stay and eventually joins them in the experiment.

However, as the group's acts of 'idiocy' grow more extreme, and the reality of the outside world becomes more intrusive, the border between liberation and self-destruction begins to blur.
