(2011)

Melancholia is a disaster drama film written and directed by Lars von Trier, starring Kirsten Dunst, Kiefer Sutherland and Charlotte Gainsbourg. The film deals with a variety of people trying to cope with the death of the planet as a large foreign body threatens a deadly collision. Lars Von Trier was rather tight-lipped about “Melancholia” before its release. He famously pronounced no more happy endings...

Filmgate supplied this production with various visual effects such as covering a golf course with hail, adding stars/moon/Melancholia-planet in a night sky, bugs crawling up from the ground, green screen replacements and more.
