The British Film Institute will release on Blu-ray Of Flesh and Blood: The Cinema of Hirokazu Kore-eda. The four-disc set will be available for purchase on July 15.

Description: This new Blu-ray collection combines four career-defining titles by Palme d'Or winning director Hirokazu Kore-eda – one of Japanese cinema's most celebrated auteurs.

The set features his austerely beautiful debut Maborosi and lyrical fantasy After Life, alongside Nobody Knows and Still Walking, films that cemented Kore-eda's reputation as an heir to Ozu and a chronicler of the modern Japanese family.

Available on Blu-ray for the very first time in the UK, the four films included in Of Flesh and Blood: The Cinema of Hirokazu Kore-eda celebrate the richness, diversity, beauty and humanity of the director's work and essential viewing for fans of contemporary world cinema.

Special Features:
  • Q+A with Hirokazu Kore-eda (2019): a newly filmed interview with the director, recorded at the BFI Southbank during its major retrospective of his work
  • Illustrated booklet
