Abstract In this study, the Depression Trilogy by Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier was analyzed. This trilogy is composed of the movies Anticristo (Antichrist, 2009), Melancolia (Melancholia, 2011) and Ninfomaníaca (Nymphomaniac, 2013). More specifically, three aspects are analyzed in this corpus: the prologue role, the communion of the characters with nature, and the violence of the relationships. Hypothetically, some classical reflections concerning the sacred, the cruelty and the eroticism made by Mircea Eliade (2010), Antonin Artaud (2006) and Georges Bataille (2014) are lined up in order to be read under the elidian concept of Sacred-profane. This concept also suspends the difference that separates the black masses from the faith, thus, with the amalgams of paradox, sacred-profane is sustained in the fine line between interdictions and transgressions, between continuous and discontinuous, and in the epiphany of the image.
