Three of the visionary director Alejandro Jodorowsky's most celebrated yet rarely seen films - El Topo Holy Mountain and Fando & Lis. All have been digitally restored and remastered under the close supervision of the director himself and presented along with an array of superb extra features including a rare 1957 short original trailers and deleted scenes. El Topo (1970): The gunfighter El Topo ('The Mole') and his young son ride through a desert to a village whose inhabitants have been massacred. Bandits are nearby torturing and killing the survivors. El Topo rescues a woman (Mara) who leads him on a mission to find and defeat the four master gunmen of the desert. Holy Mountain (1973): An epic hallucination filled with weirdness and wonder. The story centres on a thief who joins a group of people who plan to storm The Holy Mountain and steal the secret of eternal life... Fando & Lis (1968): Fando and his partially paralyzed lover Lis search for the mythical city of Tar. Based on Jodorowsky's memories of a play by surrealist Fernando Arrabal.
From its sung opening credits, Hawks and Sparrows (Uccellacci e uccellini) is a wonderfully free-form picaresque fable that lampoons politics, religion and the state of modern Italy, as the beloved comic actor Totò, Pasolini regular Ninetto Davoli and a talking crow wander the landscape through a gauntlet of unexpected encounters. Pigsty (Porcile) is one of his most controversial works, interspersing the mute wanderings of cannibalistic savages against a barren, volcanic earth with the tale of Julian (played by Nouvelle Vague icon Jean-Pierre Léaud), his radically politicised fiancée Ida (Anne Wiazemsky, Au Hasard Balthazar), and the financial machinations of his father Herr Klotz in contemporary industrialised Germany. Both films demonstrate a restless, pioneering artist's exploration of the natural world contrasted with the societal structures that govern human life. Visually inspired and playing by no-one's rules other than his own, these two brilliant works by Pasolini are presented on Blu-ray for the first time in a new limited edition.

Featuring a hot all-male cast and set in a military academy, Private Romeo's fabulously homoerotic slant on the classic play makes it the most exciting adaptation of Shakespeare's masterwork since Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet. When eight cadets are left behind at an isolated military high school, the greatest romantic drama ever written seeps out of the classroom and permeates their lives. Incorporating the original text of Romeo and Juliet - replete with the play's most romantic, tender and also vicious moments, the classic story is treated to a decidedly modern twist via YouTube videos and lip-synced indie rock music. Private Romeo takes us on a intense, affectionate ride that only Shakespeare (and a group of the sexiest military men you've ever seen!) could have inspired.

Zbynek Brynych's award-winning film presents a vivid and realistic picture of the infamous Terezín Ghetto under Nazi control during World War II. The Ghetto was an international marshaling community in Czechslaovakia where thousands of Jews from around Europe were held before being told they were being simply transferred to other towns - when they were in fact being sent to their deaths in the concentration camps. Beneath the apparent serenity of everyday life in the Ghetto the film slowly gathers a sense of the cold grip of terror in the Nazi's purposeful grotesque preparations for genocide. This haunting feature is presented for the first time ever in the UK. Special Features: Booklet Essay
