BEST-KNOWN EROTIC FILMS…
A massive global hit that should sit alongside 
STAR WARS and JAWS on any list of game-changing ‘70s movies.”
The Reprobate

THE NORTH AMERICAN UHD PREMIERE
3 DISC COLLECTION
WITH
THE ORIGINAL THEATRICAL VERSION & DIRECTOR’S CUT
PLUS 6+ HOURS OF SPECIAL FEATURES

It launched the iconic careers of director Just Jaeckin and star Sylvia Kristel, redefined cultural perceptions of ‘adult entertainment’ and transformed female sexuality on screen forever. Now “the seminal film of ‘70s erotic cinema” (DVD Talk) can be experienced in UHD for the first time in North America: Based on the bestselling memoir by Emmanuelle Arsan, a diplomat’s wife (Kristel) unlocks her deepest carnal desires in the bedrooms and backrooms of Bangkok. This 3 disc presentation includes the Original Theatrical Version and Director’s Cut – which removes the one sequence filmed without Jaeckin’s permission – both scanned in 4K from the original camera negative by StudioCanal and approved by camera operator Robert Fraisse, with over 6 hours of Special Features that include a revealing new featurette on Arsan, the U.S. Premiere of the 2000 documentary A HARD LOOK directed by Alex Cox (REPO MAN) and much more.
