February 23 – The Boss of it All
Ravn (Peter Ganzler), the head of an IT firm, has always told his staff that there was a mysterious, absent boss so that when difficult decisions needed to be made, he could put the blame on someone else. However when he wants to sell the company, he is required to get this shadowy CEO to appear and sign away the firm, and must get an unemployed actor, Stoffer (Jens Albinus), to play what becomes the role of a lifetime. The film deals with sex, power, and manipulation.
Director – Lars von Trier, 99 minutes
Film starts at 7.45 and will be followed by discussion with Paul A Taylor (editor of International Zizek Journal)
