With a groundbreaking career spanning seven decades, Frederick Wiseman is one of the great American storytellers. His documentaries, shot vérité-style, are meticulously edited narratives chronicling life's complexities through rich portraits of social and cultural institutions. Wiseman's themes are expansive: democracy, power, inequality and community, to name a few; but his focus is compellingly specific and humane. Whether revealing shortcomings in social support or celebrating culinary excellence, he has a unique eye - and ear - for detail. Representing their first release in the UK, this 3-disc / 5-film collection features a selection of Wiseman's work made between 1967 and 1975, including Titicut Follies, High School and Juvenile Court.

Special Features: Documentaries: 'Frederick Wiseman: A Discussion' (2025), Video essay by Ian Mantgani on the films of Frederick Wiseman
