Four friends entangle themselves in a web of deception and blackmail in Mexican director Gabriel Soriano's suspense thriller SEIS DIAS EN LA OSCURIDAD. Claudio (Omar Garcia), Juan Carlos (Alan Bitter), and Vampiro (Mauricio Fernandez) are lifelong best friends living a relatively carefree existence until the night Claudio kills someone in a fatal car accident. When the corrupt police begin blackmailing him to keep the death a secret, desperate Claudio turns to his friends, who suggest he get the money by staging his own kidnapping and forcing his wealthy family to pay the faux ransom. The friends' elaborate scheme seems foolproof until Claudio's anxious girlfriend Ximena (Ludwika Paleta) begins investigating the mysterious disappearance, triggering a series of events that soon spiral into tragedy. Part of the early-21st-century New Wave of Mexican cinema that includes AMORES PERROS and Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN, SEIS DIAS EN LA OSCURIDAD is a stylish, south-of-the-border update of the classic noir morality tale.DVD Features:Region (Unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

A lyrical, visually stunning work that deviates considerably from Takashi Miike's signature gorefests, BIRD PEOPLE IN CHINA nonetheless explores many of his unifying themes; these include that of outsiders in pursuit of happiness in a foreign land, and a complex and unlikely relationship, played out this time between a mobster and a quiet businessman. Wada is a handsome salaryman who works for a jade company interested in mining a recently-discovered vein that runs through a remote village in China. The company sends Wada to investigate its purity, and en route he encounters a yakuza intent on securing a share of the company's profits for the mob. Together they set out for the village, guided by Shen, an old Chinese man whose sense of direction is doubtful. But Wada and the Yakuza are in constant conflict, irritating each other at every opportunity. Upon their eventual arrival in the village, they discover a picturesque idyll where the children receive instruction in flying, and during their stay the visitors each gain valuable insights into themselves, ultimately wondering if they should ever leave. The depth of the characters, the breathtaking scenery, and the slow, dreamlike pacing make this film a magical, poetic experience that is sure to enchant and haunt its audiences.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseAnamorphic WidescreenAudio: (unspecified) - Japanese Subtitles - English - OptionalAdditional Release Material: Interviews - 1.
