For the rebels, it's time to banish the 'white material' -- white folk and the trappings of white life. Among these is the Vial coffee plantation inhabited by Maria, her ex-husband Andre, their son Manuel, and his grandfather Bernard, a white family of French origin. Their terrified workers have fled, leaving the crop un-harvested, the front gate unlocked. Andre plots his escape with his second wife Lucie and their son Jose. Maria has vowed never to leave, and is neurotically fixated on getting the neglected crop harvested. Maria does not seem to realize, or perhaps wish to see, how she is perceived. Her sense of home, of belonging, and her feeling of being rooted to the plantation--to Africa--will have tragic consequences.DVD; Region 1, NTSC; 5.1 Dolby Digital surround; widescreen presentation, preserving the 2.35:1 aspect ratio of its original theatrical exhibition, enhanced for 16:9 televisions.- Subjects: Feature films.; War films.; Fiction films.; Feature films.; Video recordings for the hearing impaired.; Civil war; Coffee plantations; White people; Mothers and sons; Dysfunctional families;

Staples ; cinematography, Agnès Godard ; film editor, Guy Lecorne.Juliette Binoche, Xavier Beauvois, Philippe Katerine, Josiane Balasko, Nicolas Duvauchelle, Alex Descas, Laurent Grevill, Bruno Podalydés, Gérard Depardieu."Two luminaries of French cinema, Claire Denis and Juliette Binoche, unite for the first time in this piercing look at the elusive nature of true love, and the extent to which we are willing to betray ourselves in its pursuit. Binoche plays Isabelle, a successful painter in Paris whose apparent independence belies what she desires most: real romantic fulfillment. Isabelle reveals deep wells of yearning, vulnerability, and resilience as she tumbles into relationships with all the wrong men. The film finds bleak humor in a cutting truth: everyone is, no matter the age, a fool for love"--Container.DVD; NTSC; region 1; 16:9 widescreen (1.66:1) presentation; 5.1 surround.- Subjects: Feature films.; Fiction films.; Film adaptations.; Romance films.; Divorced women; Man-woman relationships; Middle-aged women; Women artists;
