Nymphomaniac vol. I (2013) Lars von Trier

On a snowy evening, middleaged bachelor Seligman (Stellan Skarsgård) finds selfdiagnosed nymphomaniac Joe (Charlotte Gainsbourg) beaten up and lying in the alleyway behind his apartment. He takes her back to his home and, over tea, listens intently as Joe recounts the story of her libidinous life. Seligman, a highly educated but cloistered man, connects and analyses Joe s stories with what he has read about. Seligman s favourite hobby to read about is fly fishing, which is why he has a fly fishing lure on his wall and this is how their conversation begins. Throughout the story he parallels much of what she has experienced with various methods of the sport.
