SALO (UHD IMPORT)

The final vision of a controversial filmmaker.

Banned, censored and reviled the world over since its release, Pier Paolo Pasolini's final and most divisive film is presented here in a new 4K restoration (with the extras on a standard Blu-ray disc). The content and imagery of Salò is extreme: it retains the power to shock, repel and distress. But it remains a cinematic milestone: culturally significant, politically vital and visually stunning.

Salò is a film about power, corruption and the degradation of the human body. It is a devastating, angry cry from one of the most controversial auteurs in cinema history.
