Plot

The owner of an IT company has pretended for years that there is a far distant über-boss, enabling him to blame all the unpopular decisions on this fictional character while taking credit for all the popular ones. Now a prospective buyer wants to meet the big boss in person so the owner hires a failed, hammy actor, who proceeds to improvise all over the place to the consternation of all involved. A return to lighter themes for von Trier after Dogville' and Manderlay'. A Brechtian comedy for those who loved 'The Idiots'.
