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.

Zwei Dinge liebt Selma über alles: amerikanische Musicals und ihren kleinen Sohn. Die Musik erleichtert ihr die harte Arbeit in der Fabrik und bringt Leben in ihre Welt, aus der langsam das Licht schwindet. Denn Selma hat ein trauriges Geheimnis: Sie wird blind. Um ihren Sohn vor dem gleichen Schicksal zu bewahren, spart sie sich für dessen Operation das Geld vom Munde ab. Doch dann stiehlt ein verschuldeter Nachbar in seiner Verzweiflung Selmas Vermögen und löst damit eine Kette unglücklicher Ereignisse aus, die Selma schließlich in eine aussichtslose Situation treiben...
Lars von Trier's Palme d'Or-winning musical masterpiece stars Bjork as Selma, a Czech immigrant on the verge of blindness. She struggles to make ends meet for herself and her son, who has inherited the same genetic disorder and will suffer the same fate without an expensive operation. When life gets too difficult, Selma learns to cope through her love of musicals, dreaming up little numbers to the rhythmic beats of her surroundings.
