Lars Von Trier's The Boss Of It All is a comedy. The owner of an IT firm wants to sell up. There is just one problem: back when he started the firm he invented a fictitious boss to hide behind when there were unpopular decisions to make. The would-be buyers insist on negotiating with the boss in the flesh and so the owner resorts to employing a down-at-heel actor to play the part. Suddenly the actor discovers that he is a pawn in a game that sorely tests his (lack of) moral fibre.
The Boss of It All is released in the UK on Friday. An interview with Von Trier is now online and the trailer is at the link above.
