Selma
(Björk) works in a factory. She has a son. She has the role of Maria in The Sound of Music with the local drama
club.
She
and her son are going blnd. She’s saving money so that he can have the
necessary operation.
Things
don’t go well.
Von
Trier makes peculiar films. I’ve seen most of them and I’ve liked most of them.
A lot.
This
is peculiar, and the most peculiar musical. And I like it a lot.
