Xander

WHO IS XANDER?

A pacifist who lashes out in aggression, a minimalist who bathes in excess, an anarchist who was breastfed until the age of 15 – the enigmatic Xander is the “now” artist of Denmark’s 21st century cultural renaissance.

In “One Drop” a documentary crew finds Xander in his studio with only twelve hours remaining to deliver a commission for the Queen of Denmark’s 80th birthday jubilee. Despite having two years to deliver, Xander is incapable of completing the work for which he has already been paid a €2 million Euro commission. With the hours ticking down, will Xander deliver his long-awaited masterpiece … or will he be uncovered as a fraud?
