StudioCanal will release on Blu-ray the recent 4K restoration of director Régis Wargnier's film Indochine (1992), starring Catherine Deneuve, Vincent Perez, Linh Dan Pham, Jean Yanne, and Dominique Blanc. The release will be available for purchase on January 2.
Indochine was scanned in 4K and restored frame by frame by L'Immagine Ritrovata. Earlier this year, StudioCanal introduced the new restoration in the Classics section of the Cannes Film Festival.
Synopsis: Catherine Deneuve stars in this Oscar-winning (Best Foreign Language Film, 1992) tale of passion and revolution in colonial Veitnam.
Deneuve stars as Elaine Devries, the seemingly repressed owner of a prosperous rubber plantation in French Indochina. Her steely exterior, however, is only a mask intended to hide her torrid love affairs from upperclass society. But when her adopted Indochinese daughter innocently falls in love with Elaine's secret lover, the scandalous lover's triangle threatens to destroy their entire family. A sensual story of unbridled passion set against the violence of the bloody Communist uprising, Indochine is an historically accurate, emotionally wrenching epic of love and war.
