His experiences, after the secret radio he built to bring news and hope to his colleagues was discovered, left him traumatised and shut off from the world. Years later, he met Patti, a beautiful woman, on a train and fell in love. Patti was determined to rid Eric of his demons. Discovering that the young Japanese officer who haunted her husband was still alive, she faced a terrible decision. Should Eric be given a chance to confront his tormentor? Would she stand by him, whatever he did?

The fourth season from The Walking Dead out in September (Entertainment One)
On 24th September E1 will release the 4th season of The Walking Dead on both DVD and Blu-ray.
The fourth season of The Walking Dead finds Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) desperate to rediscover his own humanity and preserve what he can of his son Carl's (Chandler Riggs) childhood through reinventing himself as a farmer while a counsel including Carol (Melissa McBride) and Daryl (Norman Reedus) in addition to several Woodbury ex-pats take on leadership roles. His newfound sense of peace is quickly derailed, however, when a mysterious illness begins to decimate the community. Elsewhere, the disgraced Governor (David Morrissey) roams the apocalyptic streets on his own until happening upon a family of survivors who reignite both his will to survive and take revenge against Rick, who he blames for the loss of Woodbury. Following a massacre at the prison, the group is splintered into several factions, none of whom can be sure about the fates of the others, and forced to find shelter among a population of survivors that can pose as much and often more of a threat than the walkers themselves.

In August Contact Film will release Violette on DVD.
Director: Martin Provost
Stars: Emmanuelle Devos, Sandrine Kiberlain, Olivier Gourmet
Violette Leduc, born a bastard at the beginning of last century, meets Simone de Beauvoir in the years after the war in St-Germain-des-Prés. Then begins an intense relationship between the two women that will last throughout their lives, relationship based on the quest for freedom by writing to Violet and conviction for Simone to have in their hands the fate of an extraordinary writer.
"French director Martin Provost returns to the first-name female biopic genre with Violette, a film that stumbles out of the starting blocks but slowly transforms into a beautifully crafted and performed period film that illuminates the life – and especially the inner life – of French author Violette Leduc." - The Hollywood Reporter
"Emmanuelle Devos triumphs in this sharply observed yet sympathetic biopic of a trailblazing feminist author." - Variety
"Meticulously art-directed - the clothes are a knockout - the film is told in six sections, each named after an important influence on Leduc. Lit lovers will get off on the portrayals of Jean Genet and Maurice Sachs and the burgeoning scene in Paris at the time." - NowToronto.com
