Christian( Claes Bang) is the director of a contemporary art museum: the very epitome of a stylish European media professional. He needs his new gallery to make a splash and is persuaded by his PR team that what is needed is something provocative, challenging, something that could generate controversy. He hits on an idea called‘ The Square’, an enclosed space in which people are told to behave responsibly.
However, Christian is deeply shocked when his phone and wallet are stolen in The Square in a cunning scam sending him off on a controversial journey of his own.
This Cannes Palme D’ Or winner from 2018 also features Elizabeth Moss( The Handmaid’ s Tale) and Dominic West( The Wire).
