WIN! SILK ON DVD!

Fancy something lovely and delicate to take home? Check out this lush epic released this week on DVD.

 

 

Starring Keira Knightly and Michael Pitt and based on the much loved, best-selling novel by Alessandro Baricco, this lush, strikingly beautiful epic spans two continents as it tells the story of a married French smuggler whose perilous and solitary travels lead him into a strange and captivating new world. The year is 1862 and a crisis in the European silk industry sees French merchant’s emissary Hervé Joncour (Michael Pitt – Funny Games) despatched to Japan to procure the disease-free silkworm eggs that will allow for his town’s economic survival. This and subsequent journeys to Japan bring great wealth to Hervé’s village, but, with each return to the Far East, he becomes increasingly tempted by a sensuous concubine and torn between the ideals and comfort of his devoted wife at home and the mystery and beauty of a new love halfway around the world.
