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 ).
