	13’ | EN subtitles\n\nThe now rarely screened Europa trilogy was a major b
	reakthrough for cult Danish\ndirector Lars von Trier. It moves between exp
	ressionism\, surrealism\, and\navant-garde formalism\; the trilogy constru
	cts a dreamlike\, often nightmarish\nvision of a continent haunted by its

	 traumas as well as obsolete ideologies.\n\nEuropa\, the final part of thi
