… von Trier imagines satirically what it would look like if a woman really did embody all of the hysterical, irrational and deadly attributes which have historically been suspected of her.

“Eh this is about all the bad days in the world. I used to have some really bad days. And I kept them in a little box. And one day I threw them out into the yard. Oh, it’s just a couple little, innocent bad days. Well, we had a big rain… I don’t know what it was growing in, but I think we used to put eggshells out there and coffee grounds too. Don’t plant your bad days. They grow into weeks, the weeks grow into months, and before you know it you got yourself a bad year. Take it from me: CHOKE those little bad days! CHOKE ‘em down to nothing! They’re your days, CHOKE ‘em! You choke my days, I’ll choke yours. All right… It’s more than rain…” – t. waits
