Innehåller filmerna i Europa-trilogin: Forbrydelsens element (1984), Epidemic (1988 och Europa (1991).<br/><br/>Triple-bill of early films from the controversial and experimental Danish director, all exploring the traumas of the European past and the difficulties it will face in the future. 'Element of Crime' (1984) is von Trier's highly stylised debut feature. Returning from exile in Egypt, police detective Leopold Fisher (Michael Elphick) is asked to investigate a series of murders in which the victims have all been young female ticket sellers.<br/><br/>Fisher's approach is to try to adopt the perspective of the killer, and thus to predict where and when the next murder will take place, but when he meets the beautiful Kim (Me Me Lei), the line separating investigation and crime begins to blur. In 'Epidemic' (1987), von Trier plays a director collaborating with a writer on a film script about an epidemic spreading throughout the world. As they become intensely focused on their work, they fail to realise that a real epidemic is taking place around them.<br/><br/>'Europa' (1991) is set in the devastated aftermath of the Second World War. Leo (Jean-Marc Barr), a young German-American, travels to Germany to help rebuild the country. Working as a train conductor, he witnesses the cruel treatment of German civilians by Allied soldiers and the horrendous destruction brought about by the war (his train stops at towns that no longer exist).<br/><br/>Eventually he becomes involved with the railroad boss's daughter, herself an ex-Nazi partisan.

Benjamin er 13 år og en dygtig hacker. Han bor på et bosted, fordi han mistede sin mor, da han var syv år, og aldrig har kendt sin far. En dag opsøger to mænd fra Forsvarets Efterretningstjeneste Benjamin, fordi de har spottet en kvinde på en overvågningsvideo, som de mener kan være hans mor. Da chokket har lagt sig, beslutter Benjamin sig for at starte sin egen hemmelige undersøgelse af, hvad der er sket med hans mor. Han får hjælp af Savannah, der også bor på bostedet, og de finder hurtigt ud af, at Benjamins mor ikke har været den, han troede, hun var, og at hun har været del af en hemmeligstemplet mission. Da de hacker Forsvarets Efterretningstjeneste, opdager de, at Benjamin er en langt vigtigere brik i spillet om hans mors forsvinden, end han troede.
