Followed by a recorded Q&A with filmmaker Jessica Woodworth.

The husband-and-wife film making team of Jessica Woodworth and Peter Brosens (ALTIPLANO, THE FIFTH SEASON, KHADAK) return with the sequel to their 2016 comedy KING OF THE BELGIANS. Nevermind whether you've seen the first film: the sequel opens with a quick recap and eases you into the world of this wry political farce that variously recalls VEEP, THE DEATH OF STALIN and THE LOBSTER. When last seen, Nicolas III (Peter Van den Begin) and his loyal staff were in Turkey when news came that French-speaking Wallonia had declared independence from Belgium. Now in Sarajevo, Nicolas is injured during a recreation of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. He wakes in an odd sanatorium on the Croatian island of Brijuni — Josip Tito's former summer residence! — run by the oddball physician Dr. Kroll (Udo Kier). Nicolas' staff tries to prevent the fragile convalescent from hearing news of the European Union's impending collapse — a domino effect following the Walloon secession — while taking part in the sanatorium's quacky exercise and therapy regimens. Then a delegation from Vienna arrives requesting that the last King of the Belgians become the first Emperor of Nova Europa! Geraldine Chaplin shines in multiple, wacky roles: Lady Liz, Dr. Ilse von Stroheim and Mama Wakolux.
