'I'm not Nazi' - Lars von Trier in RT exclusive on Cannes Hitler remarks

The 64th edition of the Cannes Film Festival has been stirred up by perhaps the biggest scandal in its history - thanks to the director of "Antichrist", the Danish "infant terrible", Lars von Trier. It happened when the provocative director told the press conference at Cannes, in response to a question about his German roots, that "he understands Hitler and sympathises with him."

During the interview arranged about 40 kilometers from Cannes, RT asked the controversial filmmaker how it all came to happen.
