Following a successful theatrical run across the United States from May into early June that put the film in the top 10 indies at the box office, Yellow Veil Pictures have today released director Gaspar Noe’s latest feature Lux Aeterna (stylized as Lux Æterna) on digital platforms, including Amazon, Google Play, Vudu, and more.
We're also told that a 2-disc collector's edition Blu-ray will be available later this summer here in the states. Arrow Video released the film on UK Blu-ray at the end of May.
Here's the full plot synopsis...
"Lux Aeterna takes place backstage of a French film production, often utilizing split-screens to follow two characters at once. Charlotte Gainsbourg, acting as herself, plays the film’s — and the film-within-a-film’s — leading role of an actress taking on the role of a witch burned at the stake while French actress Beatrice Dalle, playing a version of herself as well, takes on the on-screen role of director. The film progresses with mounting tension as the set descends into aggressive chaos— both in style, form, and plot."
Actress and model Abbey Lee (The Neon Demon), Karl Glusman (Love), Claude-Emmanuelle Gajan-Maull (Climax), Félix Maritaud (Knife + Heart), and Clara Deshayes also appear as interpretations of themselves.
Lux Aeterna is written and directed by Gaspar Noé (Irreversible, Climax, Enter the Void), and produced by Anthony Vaccarello & Saint Laurent, Gary Farkas, Clément Lepoutre, and Olivier Muller for Vixens, Gaspar Noé and Lucile Hadzihalilovic for Les Cinémas de la Zone.
