Lars von Trier's Nymphomaniac project will reportedly feature "groundbreaking" sex scenes.

The upcoming two-part erotic film is to feature graphic sex scenes between cast members, producer Louise Vesth told The Hollywood Reporter.

However, the real hardcore scenes will be filmed using body doubles, who will then be combined with the stars' non-explicit acts using digital technology, she explained.

Charlotte Gainsbourg, Stellan Skarsgard, Shia LeBeouf, Uma Thurman, Willem Dafoe, Christian Slater and Jamie Bell are among the film's cast.

"We shot the actors pretending to have sex and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital-impose the two," Vesth said.

"So above the waist it will be the star and below the waist it will be the doubles."

The post-production work on the project is said to be the reason why it was not available to be screened at Cannes this week.

Vesth continued to explain that von Trier has used experimental techniques in the film, including double exposures and utilising words and symbols over sequences.

One distributor who saw early footage of the film described it as "groundbreaking...like nothing [they've] ever seen".

Vesth added that she hopes von Trier will end his self-imposed ban on promotion, following his infamous Nazi remarks two years ago.

"Lars has thrown everything in this one," she said. "It's about religion, about God, about philosophy. There's so much to talk about with this movie. I hope he changes his mind and starts giving interviews again."

The world premiere will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark this December.

This is stupid and they should feel stupid.

But its not porn if they do it like that, it's erotic film play.

Not sure how it's ground breaking, unlike they have some extra large BBW with CGI effects where they have sex falling off a roof or something...

OK, look, I have nothing against porn, I watch a fair bit. But sorry, I have no desire to sit in a cinema with loads of other people watching actors pretend to have sex and then body doubles used to insert the real sex. How does it benefit the story - for decades we have known that sex scenes are acted, but now we actually need to see penetration? Why?

I suppose he wanted to do some different

But it's not "different". This is the thing - some of the sexiest stories told can be shown on screen without penetrative sex. It's just pushing it for the sake of pushing it.

I will see it, because I am curious - is this being used in any way to better the delivery of a storyline (I don't see how) or just for the sake of it?

It was a bit like that film 9 Songs, they showed oral which was massive taboo

      And the fact that the majority of people from Poland are white European Christians while the people you are complaining about in post after post are not is just a coincidence... Every sentence in your post I am replying to is racist nonsense. None of it is actually based on any facts whatsoever. All immigrants are seeking a better life too. It's literally the only reason they would risk everything and leave their homes, families, and homeland. They are working and contributing to the economy too, as you even admit. They get the same benefits your partner did AND that YOU are eligible for as well. That is one of the key things of the EU and a mark of a civilization. That is the definition of a society where everyone is given a chance, treated equally and fairly, and is judged by the content of their character, not their different skin color or which version of ignorant superstitious nonsense their parents lied about as children. Racists around the world said the same things about the Irish and Jews and Poles (like your partner) and...every other immigrant movement over the centuries. What's your family's heritage, by the way? Were your ancestors lied about with racist fearmongering crapola by self-entitled locals the same way as you are now? If someone like that said the same things about all people from Poland, like your partner, would they be right? Or would you want them to judge your partner based on who they actually were, not where they just happened to come from?
