Kino Lorber will release on Blu-ray director Stéphane Brizé's film The Measure of a Man (2015), starring Vincent Lindon, Karine de Mirbeck, Matthieu Schaller, Yves Ory, and Xavier Mathieu. The release will be available for purchase on September 13.
Earlier this year, the film won Best Actor Award (Vincent Lindon) at the Cannes Film Festival.
Synopsis: In The Measure of a Man Vincent Lindon (Augustine, Bastards) gives his finest performance to date as unemployed everyman Thierry, who must submit to a series of quietly humiliating ordeals in his search for work. Futile retraining courses that lead to dead ends, interviews via Skype, a workshop critique of his self-presentation by fellow jobseekers; all are mechanisms that seek to break him down and strip him of identity and self-respect. In his award-winning performance, Vincent Lindon is quietly heartbreaking, revealing the soul of the unemployed.
