The Blu-Ray was developed as a high-definition successor to the DVD and offers a significantly increased data rate and storage capacity compared to its predecessor. Blu-Rays can therefore store movies with significantly better resolution and offer enormously high picture quality on corresponding screens. Blu-Ray players are usually backward compatible with DVDs, so that they can also be played.

- Mini-documentary: 'Twilight of the Bodies: Fassbinder in search of Querelle', Presentation of the film by Volker Schlöndorff
Querelle is a sailor on shore leave in the French port of Brest. Following an argument, in which he stabs and kills his drug-smuggling partner, he seeks shelter in a nearby brothel.
There he befriends the predatory madam, Lysiane (Jeanne Moreau), who leads him into his first homosexual encounter.
From then on Querelle embarks upon a voyage of highly charged and sometimes violent sexual self-discovery that will transform him forever from the man he once was…
Adapted from Jean Genet’s infamous, groundbreaking novel, the final film of celebrated director Rainer Werner Fassbinder's career is a striking, surreal and utterly unique tale of sex and murder that has gone on to become a cult classic.
