Wednesday November 28 at 7:30pm, Univerciné presents the film "The house that Jack built".

Directed by Lars Von Trier
Starring Matt Dillon, Bruno Ganz, Uma Thurman
Genre: Drama, Thriller
Nationality: Denmark
Running time: 2h35

Synopsis:
United States, 1970s. We follow the brilliant Jack through five incidents and discover the murders that will mark his career as a serial killer. The story is told from Jack's point of view. He considers each murder a work of art in itself. As the ultimate and inevitable police intervention draws ever closer (which exasperates Jack and puts pressure on him) he decides - against all logic - to take more and more risks. Throughout the film, we discover Jack's descriptions of his personal situation, problems and thoughts through his conversation with a stranger, Verge. A grotesque mix of sophistry, almost childish self-pity and detailed explanations of Jack's dangerous and difficult maneuvers.
