Merci la vie Limited Edition 4K Ultra HD presents Bertrand Blier’s provocative and surreal satire in its world premiere 4K UHD release with Dolby Vision HDR.

Moving between wartime occupation, social upheaval and deeply personal revelations, their strange odyssey becomes a chaotic exploration of identity, sexuality and survival.
