Lars von Triers Breaking the Waves, starring Emily Watson and Stellan Skarsgård, follows a devout young woman in a remote Scottish village whose faith and love are tested when her husband becomes paralyzed in an accident. Blending religious devotion, sacrifice, and emotional extremity, it is one of von Triers most haunting and spiritually provocative dramas.

Från IMDB:
Oilman Jan is paralyzed in an accident. His wife, who prayed for his return, feels guilty; even more, when Jan urges her to have sex with another.

For the first time on 4K Ultra-HD, Curzon Film is proud to present the 4K restoration of Breaking the Waves. The restoration was supervised by director Lars von Trier.

Set in a small, coastal town in the Scottish Highlands, Breaking the Waves follows devoutly religious Bess (Emily Watson, in her feature acting debut) who finds love with a non-religious, Norwegian oil rig worker, Jan (Stellan Skarsgård). After their marriage, which is not condoned by her community, Jan suffers a terrible accident at work, leaving him paralysed and in poor health, both physically and mentally. Unable to perform sexually, Jan persuades Bess to have sex with other men, which she comes to believe is Gods work and will cure her husband.
