TROUBLE EVERY DAY (Masters of Cinema) Limited Edition 4K UHD & Blu-ray

The first excursion into genre cinema by the celebrated French auteur Claire Denis, who had made her name with her previous features Chocolat and Beau Travail, Trouble Every Day is an erotically charged exploration of our darkest human desires and a key film in the development of what later came to be known as the New French Extremity movement.

Dr Shane Brown (Vincent Gallo, Buffalo '66) and his new wife June (Tricia Vessey, On the Edge) are honeymooning in Paris, though Shane has other plans for their trip. He is hoping to track down his former medical colleague Léo Semenau (Alex Descas, Bastards) and discuss a past study into the human libido. But Léo doesn’t want to be found – he is living in obscurity to hide his own wife, Coré (Béatrice Dalle, Inside), who has developed an insatiable, cannibalistic lust as a result of Léo’s outlandish experiments. A lust that Shane is beginning to feel, too…

A dark and lyrical rumination on the pleasures of the flesh, Trouble Every Day is a remarkable work of extreme cinema that challenged critics and audiences upon its release before it came to be lauded as a modern classic. The Masters of Cinema series is honoured to present the film on 4K UHD for the first time anywhere in the world from a brand-new restoration.
