"Nymphomaniac" is a two-part romantic drama film written and directed by Lars von Trier. The film follows the life of a young woman named Joe (played by Stacy Martin and Charlotte Gainsbourg), who struggles with nymphomania, an obsessive need for sex. The film begins with Joe in a violent encounter with a homeless man, Seligman (played by Stellan Skarsgard), who saves her from her injuries. In order to kill time while the police resolve the situation, Seligman starts listening to Joe's life story. This is the framework for the film, with Joe recounting her experiences, both joyous and tormented, to Seligman. Joe's early life began with an overprivileged and isolated upbringing in Copenhagen. She encountered sex at a young age, as a child she was aware of its nature, but at age 15 she had taken her first boyfriend for a rollercoaster ride in his motorbike. Joe claimed she experienced multiple sexual encounters several times and that the acts of sex resulted left her deeply unsatisfied. This never satisfied her wanting for more, leaving her feelings disconnected and in a troubled world of confusion and frustration. This relentless pattern consumed Joe in the pursuit of desperate desire. The first volume of the film focuses on Joe's early life, starting from age 15 to 20, during which she's consumed by her insatiable sexual desire and becomes involved in multiple relationships and encounters, some of which end in violence and abuse. One of Joe's relationships includes with K (played by Shia LaBeouf), a charismatic and passionate young man who is the first person to make her feel truly connected. However, their time together is repeatedly interrupted, causing Joe's disillusionment with her body's inability to provide her with the fulfillment she craves. The second part of the film explores Joe's life from age 20 to 30. Here, Joe enters into a more precarious world of destructive desires. Her unrelenting obsession develops while becoming a defining, characteristic that sets apart Joe's isolation from societal relations. Joe proceeds to a sadomasochistic relationship with a dominating man, presented as an interpretation by her reflections in her narrative. In this complex interplay between self-agency and loss of personal values, Joe exists within her own desires. Eventually she finds herself losing her once deep connection as well as her sense of self through relations with others. Fueled by a longing fulfillment she has not found she drifts and eventually suffers the collapse of her relationships and total lack of intimacy. In this manner Joe has grown restless of a life characterized by broken bonds, where every connection falters due to emptiness, desire and needs the fulfillment lost. The world outside of Joe reflects its darkness. By way of closure, in her conversation with Seligman, Joe explains to him how her recollections served as a therapeutic exercise, the release of unrequired needs fulfilled the solitude through reason. Joe then resolves the tragic culmination reflecting on herself alone in her home.
