Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Voorman Problem is a 2013 short film directed by Mark Gill.Dr. Williams (Martin Freeman), a psychiatrist, is summoned to a prison to examine a patient named Voorman (Tom Hollander). Voorman, it seems, believes that he is God. This wouldn't be such a big problem, except that Voorman has managed to convince all the other inmates that he is God.The warden asks Dr. Williams to certify that Voorman is insane, so that the warden can send Voorman to an asylum. Williams is incredulous when Voorman proclaims that not only is he actually God, he invented the entire universe, including Williams, only nine days ago.Based on a short story by David Mitchell | |

Dystopia | |
| The Voorman Problem / int_3b39c254 | comment |
Dystopia: Hinted at. Most of the psychiatrist in Britain are busy serving in some sort of "ever-expanding war in the East." And the warden at the prison is astonished at the very idea that any of his prisoners might be released. | |

| The Voorman Problem / int_5d1cdda9 | comment |
God Test: Voorman offers to prove that he is God by doing away with the existence of Belgium. Williams is horrified when his wife doesn't know what Belgium is. He checks his encyclopedia and finds the space formerly occupied by Belgium to be a body of water called the "Walloon Lagoon." | |

God Is Evil: Voorman tells Williams that wars amuse him. And at the end he switches places with Williams, leaving to have sex with Williams's wife while Williams is locked in prison. Oh, and he literally wipes Belgium off the map. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| The Voorman Problem / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The nods to some sort of Dystopia (see above) are actually a subtle hint that Voorman is telling the truth. After all, Britain has never been in a "war in the East." | |
