“Here comes a film. It's a comedy and harmless.” - Lars von Trier When the owner of an IT company decides to sell up, he's forced to wheel out the CEO to seal the deal. The only problem is the CEO was his creation, invented to take the blame for unpopular decisions. Enter Kristoffer, an out of work actor hired to play the part, who unwittingly and increasingly becomes entrenched in the devious charade. The Boss of It All is a departure for von Trier, known for his dire subject matter in films such as Breaking the Waves and Dancer in the Dark, and filmed using von Trier's own invention, Automavision, which completely randomises the camera angles and shots using a computer program. (Note: Automavision takes all the credit for the film's cinematography).
