Denmark's von Trier to direct a new film

Two years after announcing that he was suffering from Parkinson's disease, Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier, is to direct a new film, a listing of grants reviewed on Thursday by AFP showed.

Text size:

His project, titled "After", has been granted 1.3 million Danish kroner ($192,000), by the Danish Film Institute (DFI), according to a listing published by the DFI.

Von Trier, 68, is also listed as the screenwriter of the feature film -- which is produced by Zentropa.

No further details about the project are known.

In July, Sweden's Stellan Skarsgard, who has acted in several of his films, told online media Taxidrivers that von Trier was working on his new film "from home".

"After" is set to be von Trier's 15th feature film since he graduated the Copenhagen Film School in 1982.

The Copenhagen-born director wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post last year that "with any luck I should still have a few decent movies left in me".

The father of four has never shied away from controversy.

In 2011, von Trier caused a storm when he said he "understood" Hitler during the presentation of his film "Melancholia" at the Cannes Film Festival.

He was immediately banned, but his film remained in competition and its star Kirsten Dunst won an award for Best Actress. He later apologised for the comment.

One of the biggest stars of Danish cinema, von Trier has directed more than 14 feature films, often disturbing and violent.

Von Trier won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2000 for "Dancer in the Dark".
