Lars von Trier's bold, brilliant and controversial new film tells the story of Joe (Charlotte Gainsbourg & newcomer Stacy Martin), a self-diagnosed nymphomaniac, from birth to the age of 50. One night, a gentle old bachelor named Seligman (Stellan Skarsgard), finds Joe beaten up in an alley. After taking her to his flat, he cares for her wounds and asking her about her life, listening intently as, over the film's eight chapters, she recounts the lusty, labyrinthine story of her life.......... By turns profoundly moving, viscerally shocking, intellectually resonant and surprisingly funny, Nymphomaniac is a dazzling, daring and devilish work of cinematic art from the world's foremost maverick director.
