Argumento
In the small, conservative Scottish village of Benncleuch, a naive young woman named Bess McNeil (Emily Watson) marries Jan Nyman (Stellan Skarsgård), a Danish oil-rig worker. After their marriage, Jan returns to his rig, promising to come back soon. Alone and lonely, Bess prays fervently for God to bring him home safely. Jan suffers a severe neck injury in an accident aboard the rig and returns permanently paralyzed. Unable to have sexual relations with Bess, Jan convinces her to take lovers and describe the encounters to him as a way to cope with his condition and give him a reason to live. As Bess's sexual behavior becomes more deviant, she comes to believe that her actions are guided by God and will help Jan recover. However, the community turns against them, and eventually, Bess is excommunicated from the church for her sins.
Resumen
Breaking the Waves (1996) is a drama film directed by Lars von Trier as the first installment of his 'Golden Heart' trilogy. Set in a repressed Scottish village in the 1970s, the story explores themes of faith, authority, and societal norms through the lens of Bess McNeil's unconventional marriage to Jan Nyman. The movie is notable for its uncompromising portrayal of Bess's descent into sexual transgressions as she believes they are guided by God, ultimately leading to her excommunication from the church. Emily Watson delivers a powerful performance as Bess, earning critical acclaim and an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress.
