It will be possible to take Trier with you not only as prints – Persona non grata T-shirts have been released especially for the retrospective. It was around this time that the director visited the Berlin Film Festival after being declared persona non grata at Cannes.
Earlier, Lars von Trier talked about working on a new project. This will be a “database” of his work in the film industry. We talk about it in more detail here.
