”Was Antichrist my ”inferno-crisis”? My kinship with Strindberg?” Lars Von Trier asks himself after finishing the tale about a psychiatrist and his wife who mourn the tragic loss of their son. They retreat to an outlying cabin in the woods, “Eden”, in which she once wrote a thesis about the witch-hunt of the middle-ages. Whilst they try to understand how they could be struck with such tragedy, the nature surrounding them reveals itself as harsh and evil. Paradise becomes hell, in which only deer, foxes and crows feel at home. Antichrist is an intense story about power and love between two people.
