10 DVD Box Set includes the following films:
Fish Tank: Live, love and give as good as you get. Mia, a volatile 15 year-old who is always in trouble, has been excluded from school and ostracised by her friends. One hot summer's day her mother brings home a mysterious stranger called Connor who promises to change everything and bring love into all their lives.
Antichrist: Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg play a married couple who retreat to a cabin in the woods after losing their young son. There, they run into some terrifying occurrences. Dafoe's character is a therapist trying to help his wife deal with her grief, and it's when that grief runs wild that things start to go weird.
White Ribbon: The story of the children and teenagers of a choir run by the village schoolteacher, and their families: the baron, the steward, the pastor, the doctor, the midwife, the tenant farmers. Strange accidents occur and gradually take on the character of a punishment ritual. Who is behind it all? The film's title refers to the loss of innocence. Crisply shot in black and white, the film is set in a rural German village just prior to World War I. Voiced by an old man (Ernst Jacobi) who used to be the village schoolteacher, the story reveals mysterious goings-on. A doctor falls off his horse, apparently tripped by a rigged wire. The son of the local baron is found beaten. A barn is burned down. So who is to blame? As the war approaches, suspicion begins to escalate, perhaps presaging Germany's next 30 years.
Che: Part One: Che is a two part biopic based on the life and diaries of the iconic revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara. Part one tells the story of the Cuban revolution as Guevara and Casto land on the island intent on toppling the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. Did you know? Benicio Del Toro chose Ryan Gosling for the role of Benigno Ramirez. Gosling met with the real Ramirez and even learned Spanish for the part but delays in pre-production forced him to drop out of the film.
Che: Part Two: The second part of Steven Soderbergh's epic biopic on the life of the iconic revolutionary. In 1965 Ernesto Che Guevara resigns from his role in the Cuban government to take up the struggle against Bolivia's militarist government. But with Bolivia Che has bitten off more than he can chew. His band of volunteers are greatly outnumbered and short on supplies, the local population do not share his dreams of rebellion and when the US lends it's support to the Bolivian Army Che must not only face the prospect of defeat but his own failing health.
Enter the Void: After living in Japan for some time and finding employment as a drug dealer, a brother sends for his sister to move Japan and live with him. With a story out of sequence, this film shows the brother and sister in their intimate moments. The experience is jarring at times and blissful at others. The setting is the Japanese redlight district of the very near future. The sister gets involved with sex and drugs and the brother lives dangerously. With their parents gone from a horrible car crash (seen more than once), all these two really have is each other in an exploitive world.
Broken Embraces: A man writes, lives and loves in darkness. Fourteen years before, he was in a brutal car crash on the island of Lanzarote. In the accident, he didn't lose only his sight, he also lost Lena, the love of his life. This man uses two names: Harry Caine, a playful pseudonym with which he signs his literary works, stories and scripts, and Mateo Blanco, his real name, with which he lives and signs the film he directs. After the accident, Mateo Blanco reduces himself to his pseudonym, Harry Caine. If he can't direct films he can only survive with the idea that Mateo Blanco died on Lanzarote with his beloved Lena.
Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives: The film centers on the last days in the life of its title character. Together with his loved ones – including the ghost of his dead wife and his lost son who has returned in a non-human form – Boonmee explores his past lives as he contemplates the reasons for his illness.
Leap Year: Holed up in her rundown Mexican apartment, freelance journalist Laura Lopez lives a life of quiet desperation. In between watching TV and eating her meals from cans, she passes the time masturbating while spying on the neighbours, and entertaining a string of strangers in her bed. Her empty days and carnal nights seem destined to repeat themselves indefinitely, but things change when she finds a man willing to take their love-making to a shocking new extreme. Melbourne-born filmmaker Michael Rowe makes a startling debut with Leap Year, twenty-nine days in the life of a lonely, damaged young woman. Driven to increasingly confronting sexual encounters, Laura inches ever closer to an unknown goal which lies circled on her calendar.
The Tree:The O'Neills lived happily in their house in the Australian countryside. That was until one day fate struck blindly, taking the life of Peter, the father, leaving his grief-stricken wife Dawn alone with their four children. Among them, eight-year-old Simone denies this reality. She is persuaded that her father still lives in the giant fig tree growing near their house and speaks to her through its leaves. But the tree becomes more and more invasive and threatens the house. It must be felled. Of course, Simone won't allow...
