PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
France 1774. Expelled from the puritanical court of Louis XVI, a group of aristocratic libertines pursue an ideal of enlightenment through the rejection of conventional morality. At a time when hypocrisy and false virtue reign, they seek a place to indulge their quest for pleasure, inhabiting a libidinous twilight world dedicated to realising unfulfilled desires. Albert Serras explicit and opulent exploration of the limits of the erotic imagination is one of the most radical and subversive works of recent times, making Liberté a singular cinematic experience. BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS High Definition director-approved presentation of the complete uncut and uncensored version of the film. Introduction to the film by its director Albert Serra. An exclusive, newly-filmed interview with Albert Serra. Original theatrical trailer. 24-page booklet featuring a new essay by curator and author Jason Wood, and an interview with Albert Serra by film critic Manu Yáñez-Murillo. Original soundtrack 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and 2.0 Stereo LPCM (24-bit). World premiere on Blu-ray. Region free Blu-ray (A/B/C)

REVIEW
Audaciously perverse and amorphous. Liberté conjures a sustained ambiance and eroticism that s unique to the language of cinema. --Slant magazine

Liberté more than lives up to its title, suggesting that a truly free cinema is one that still believes in the possibility of subversion. --Dennis Lim, ArtForum

An uncompromising howl in the wind against the notions of good taste. This is both Serra s most uncompromising film and his most enjoyable. --The Film Stage
