En blomst (1971)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1013528/

En blomst / A Flower

Director & Writer: Lars von Trier (as Lars Trier)
Cast: Ole Benzon

Boy meets flower in a world at the brink of annihilation.

***
The wonders of the internet have made a very early Lars Von Trier short film, “En Blomst,” available for your eyes. The 1971 film, shot by the then 15-year-old director who was going as Lars Trier, shows signs of the sensibility for a bit of shock that he would develop later on. The music choices and even the “plot” all seem like ingredients he would use in later efforts, but mostly, this seven-minute movie is a nice peek of a director developing his skills. Give it a whirl below.
