SCARRED HEARTS Will Be Released On DVD December 18 From Big World Pictures

Renowned director Radu Jude's ("Aferim!") haunting adaptation of M. Blecher's celebrated semi-autobiographical novel will have its DVD debut on Tuesday, December 18, 2018, from Big World Pictures. Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the Locarno International Film Festival, and Best Director at the Mar del Plata Film Festival, Scarred Hearts stars Lucian Teodor Rus in an extraordinary film debut, and co-stars Ivana Mladenovi? ("Soldiers") Serban Pavlu ("Aferim!") and Gabriel Spahiu ("I Do Not Care if We Go Down in History as Barbarians") in a mesmerizing and darkly comic adaptation of Blecher's novel.

During the summer of 1937, Emanuel (Rus), a young man in his early twenties, is committed to a sanatorium on the Black Sea coast for treatment of his bone tuberculosis. The treatment consists of painful spine punctures that confine him to a body cast on a stretcher-bed. Little by little, as Emanuel gets accustomed to the limitations of his new life, he discovers that inside the sanatorium there is still a life to be lived to the fullest. He makes friends, he reads, he writes. He observes how healing seems to happen transiently, following mysterious laws. He even has a romantic relationship, while Romania outside the sanatorium doesn't have much to offer him, turning more and more into an extreme right- wing society.
