Lars von Trier's powerful, yet disturbing film, now in glorious 4K UHD!

Introducing Curzon Films' Limited Edition 4K UHD + Blu-ray (Region B) for Lars von Trier's 1996 film Breaking the Waves. Set in a small, coastal town in the Scottish Highlands, Breaking the Waves follows devoutly religious Bess (Emily Watson, in her feature acting debut) who finds love with a non-religious, Norwegian oil rig worker, Jan (Stellan Skarsgård).

After their marriage, which is not condoned by her community, Jan suffers a terrible accident at work, leaving him paralysed and in poor health, both physically and mentally. Unable to perform sexually, Jan persuades Bess to have sex with other men, which she comes to believe is God's work and will cure her husband. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: This set contains 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray (Region Free) and Blu-ray (Region B) Discs. An all-region Blu-ray player is required to read Region B discs. Standard U.S. Blu-ray players will NOT read Region B discs. Looking for all-region players? Visit our store!. Looking for all-region players? We've got you covered
