After a 25-year hiatus, the third series of Danish film director Lars von Trier’s medical comedy-horror, The Kingdom, has made its much-anticipated return to TV.
Given its barmy premise (it’s about a very strange hospital and its eccentric staff and patients), the recent medical diagnosis of its often controversial director (in August Von Trier’s production company, Zentropa, announced that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s), and the series’ two-decades-late release, it made sense that the show made waves when it debuted on Mubi in November.
