Nymphomaniac Vol 1 and 2 (2013)
Director, Screenplay: Lars Von Tier
Humans demand that it is their birthright to demand their pleasures. It is one's fundamental necessity to live a fulfilled life where it is filled with various pleasures. After all, they say, you only live once. You are only given the opportunity to live once. You are supposed to live to the fullest. You should go the whole 9 yards to make it a reality. And you blame all your future failures and underachievement to these unfulfillments. Somehow, it seems legitimate to holds others responsible for your existence accountable to your follies. The fault is anybody's except yours.
On the other end, another group would argue that life on earth is torture. Our time here is an opportunity to serve and gain merit points for an eternal afterlife. They live by preset rules, suppressing their innate desires that they perceive every temptation as a test of virtue from the dark side to commit sin.
This 5-hour presentation by an eccentric director is a graphic representation of a life of a sex addict. It is told in the form of a narration by a battered lady who was rescued at an alley by a recluse mmiddle-agedsexually shy intellect. As she gains strength, with a hot cup od milked tea, she tells her life story. Both of them try to analyse her actions as she narrates the nitty gritty deatils of her childhood, adolescence, sexual escapades and the collapse of her life. The intellect attempts to analyse her actions and inactions from a philosophical and anthropomorphical angles whilst she tries to justify hers.
