The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to the next screening of its Philm Club:
Epidemic (1987)
Director: Lars von Trier
106 minutes
in Danish with English subtitles
The film opens with the writer Niels Vørsel calling his creative partner Lars von Trier (...) about their latest screenplay. Lars goes over to Niels’ place only to discover that the disc containing the script (...) has been erased. Left with just a few days before they have to hand in their work to their producer, they scramble to write up a brand new script. They decide to create a new story about the spread of a deadly plague across the world and begin to conduct research and map out a plot. They make progress and see to other matters like a road trip to Germany while remaining unaware of an actual outbreak that is quietly making its way across Europe. (row 3)
