'Denmark is for Rapists': The New Lars Von Trier Tourism Campaign

The far-reaching Onion News Network covers a new Denmark tourism campaign conceived and directed by Lars von Trier. In them, the Antichrist director artfully showcases that country's gorgeous natural terrain, rich cultural history, and prolificacy of genital mutilations and profound human suffering. According to the report, all were shot in keeping with the guidelines of the Dogme 95 movement, which limited them to "camera phones using only natural light and actors who were kept in sensory-deprivation chambers." Indeed, it's in von Trier's simple observations of Danish life -- two clubgoers arguing over who raped who, or the profound affection between a naked old man and the unseen wearer of the mud-coated combat boot he licks voraciously in a forest -- that the charms of Hans Christian Andersen's homeland come into picture-perfect, sun-kissed focus.
