Pierre lives with his mother in a castle in Normandy, near the banks of the Seine. They are beautiful, rich, carefree, and they love each other. Every morning, Pierre takes the motorcycle inherited from his father to visit Lucie, his fiancée. One night, Marie announces to Pierre that she has set the date of his marriage to Lucie. Pierre goes to tell his fiancée the good news. On the way, at the edge of the forest, a creature of grim beauty appears. She speaks with a strong Eastern European accent: "Pierre... you are not an only child, I am your sister, Isabelle."…
Presented in official selection at the Cannes Film Festival in 1999, Pola X is a stunning work, freely adapted from Herman Melville's novel Pierre; or, The Ambiguities. Filmmaker Leos Carax transforms the narrative, through its intense atmosphere and radical aesthetic, into a feverish plunge into desire, transgression, and self-destruction. Available for the first time on Blu-ray™ and 4K Ultra HD™, Pola X is a cinematic whirlwind, filmed by the cult director of Bad Blood and Annette. Also to discover, in world exclusivity and new 2K restoration, the television version in three episodes: Pierre; or, The Ambiguities.
