刚刚遭受丧子之痛的家庭主妇凯伦(波迪尔·约根森 Bodil Jørgensen饰),敏感脆弱。她失魂落魄的游荡在哥本哈根的街头,在餐厅进餐时偶遇一位紧握她手不放的白痴。出于同情心,凯伦一路跟随他,目睹了一群终日装疯卖傻的“白痴们”。其实这群年轻男女并非是真正的弱智者,他们是以史托佛(杨斯·艾宾纳斯 Jens Albinus饰)为首佯装白痴的正常人。为了向中产阶级体制挑战,他们不顾舆论压力,以欺骗他人、玩弄他人为乐。凯伦一方面无法彻底成为“白痴”,一方面又对他们的行径梦寐以求。渐渐地,凯伦开始在她的家人面前扮演起了白痴,深陷其中不能自拔。本片入围1998年第51届戛纳电影节主竞赛单元-金棕榈奖。这部以“道格玛95”为电影拍摄准则的影片,不仅在拍摄手法上完全不顾画面的美感,更是继《感官世界》后又一部大量暴露性器官镜头的影片,极度挑战着电检制度和观众的道德尺度。《白痴》与《破浪而出》、《黑暗中的舞者》合称“良心三部曲”。

The movie is generally lacking in character development. The film at one point follows the creepiest-looking gangster (Flavio Bucci from the "The Night Train Murders") to his home where he is shacking up with another gangster's wife and her kid, but more than character development this seems to be more an excuse for another sex scene. The Placido character has an interesting flashback of him working on a filthy fishing barge, which is contrasted with a fantasy where he is piloting a yacht. This movie is very class-conscious in the way it has this poor Sicilian boy falling for a rich, northern girl (the Italian title "La Orca" comes from the designer outfit she's wearing). Placido is pretty good here, but this handsome, light-complexioned hunk is not too convincing as a lower-class Sicilian ruffian. As for Neihaus, I can't decide if she is a bad actress, or is just playing a really obnoxious character (she's more Paris Hilton than Patty Hearst). She does get naked several times which, judging from the English, title was the primary consideration.
The unexpected death of the family patriarch throws every member of the Ullmann clan off course. Widow Dafna takes to bed for three months and when she finally returns to her job at the maternity hospital, she has little time for her children. Eldest son, Yair drops out of school and adopts a fatalist attitude, shutting out his siblings and girlfriend. His twin sister Maya, a talented musician, feels the most guilt and is forced to act as a family caregiver at the expense of career opportunities. Bullied at school, younger son Ido responds by obsessively filming himself with a video camera and attempting dangerous feats. The baby sister, Bar, is woefully neglected. Preoccupied with their own misery, the family is barely a family anymore. When another tragedy strikes, will they be able to support one another? Written by Sujit R. Varma
