Liliana Cavani's shocking masterpiece with Charlotte Rampling and Dirk Bogarde

NEW UNPUBLISHED 4K RESTORATION

"FORTY YEARS LATER, NIGHT PORTER RETAINS ITS POWER OF FASCINATION, ITS MEPHITICAL PERFUME. WHAT A FILM! WHAT A SUBJECT!"
THE FIGARO

Vienna, 1957. Max works as a night porter in a large hotel. One day Lucia arrives, traveling with her conductor husband. When their eyes meet, memories immediately come flooding back: a former SS officer, Max had a sadomasochistic relationship with Lucia while she was a prisoner in a concentration camp. Passion will soon resurface between the former executioner and his victim...

Directed by Liliana Cavani ( The Skin ), The Night Porter is a dive into the heart of human deviance served by an exceptional duo of actors, Dirk Bogarde and Charlotte Rampling, already dazzling in Luchino Visconti's The Damned . Deemed scandalous when it was released in 1974, the film shakes up decency through its phantasmagorical vision of a passion combining Eros and Thanatos, and ignoring all moral considerations. Provocative, fascinating and of great formal audacity, The Night Porter is to be rediscovered in its new 4K restoration.
