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.

Peter Greenaway directs this black comedy which revolves around three generations of women called Cissie Colpitts (Joan Plowright, Juliet Stevenson and Joely Richardson).
When each of the women decides to drown their husband, they enlist the assistance of Coroner Madgett (Bernard Hill), who finds his job seriously compromised as a result. Meanwhile, Madgett's adolescent son Smut plays obscure folk games and becomes obsessed with collecting animal corpses.
Reviews
RoRoFilmlexikon: "Drei Frauen aus drei Generationen ertränken ihre Ehemänner und verbünden sich mit dem Leichenbeschauer, um die Morde zu vertuschen. In grandiosen Farb- und Lichtkompositionen als Abfolge makaber-surrealer Spiele von eigensinniger Logik inszenierter Film, der zahllose Ideen- Assoziationen entfesselt."More from Peter Greenaway
