In order for them to guarantee safe passage for his armies to Troy, he must make the ultimate sacrifice: the death of his beloved daughter, Iphigenia. Torn between family and country, he attempts to keep the details of the impossible ultimatum from his wife, Clytemnestra (Irene Papas, We Still Kill the Old Way), choosing to deceive her while he wrestles with the implications of his decision, while those around him wait tensely for his answer. A masterpiece of epic Greek storytelling, Iphigenia is the third film from Michael Cacoyannis (Zorba the Greek, Elektra) to be adapted from a Euripidean tragedy, and one of the director's most acclaimed and successful films, nominated for both the Palme d'Or and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecial Features and Technical Specs:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-definition digital transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncompressed mono PCM audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew interview with Greek film expert Dimitris Papanikolaou on Michael Cacoyannis (2025)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival press conference interview with Michael Cacoyannis (1977)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival interview with director Michael Cacoyannis and actress Irene Papas (1977)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly improved English subtitle translation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Time Tomorrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited edition booklet featuring new writing by Vrasidas Karalis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited edition of 3000 copies, presented in full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eREGION-A\/B \"LOCKED\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RADIANCE FILMS","offers":[{"title":"BLU-RAY","offer_id":48195275718875,"sku":null,"price":36.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/6379\/4395\/files\/400401_front.jpg?v=1769545303","url":"https:\/\/baystvideo.com\/products\/iphigenia-1977","provider":"Bay Street Video","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
