Arrow Films is thrilled to be bringing back Like Water for Chocolate to Blu-ray and DVD in a newly restored edition, available to own from 3rd March 2015. This luxuriant adaptation of Laura Esquivel’s much-loved novel (directed by her then husband Alfonso Arau) broke box-office records for a Spanish-language film.
In a Mexican border town in 1910, neighbours Pedro and Tita wish to marry, but Tita’s mother Elena refuses to give her consent, since she wants her youngest daughter to stay living with her as a full-time carer. So Pedro marries Tita’s sister Rosario instead – and Tita pours her innermost feelings into her cooking, triggering similar responses in anyone who samples it, whether lovelorn grief or overwhelming passion.
But Tita’s concoctions are just one of many magical-realist touches in this sensuous and intoxicating film, which offsets the real-life historical background of the Mexican Revolution with tales of ghosts, mysterious lights and an ancient legend that claims that human beings are essentially matches, combustible at any moment when given the right trigger.
Progress is pleased to present you the absolute top-priority release on the label for spring 2015. The long awaited new album from Swedish Agent Side Grinder! With their past albums "Agent Side Grinder" (2008), "Irish Recording Tape" (2009) and "Hardware" (2012) they have grown to become a respected and well known act all over Europe and also in North America, where Hardwire was licensed to Artoffact. Album of the month in Vice Magazine, Manifest awards and several big annual best-of lists. The list is long.
They have collaborated with artists such as Dirk Ivens (Klinik) and Kite, played festivals such as Grauzone, Wave-Gotik Treffen, The Great Escape, Eurosonic, Paaspop, Les Transmusicales de Rennes, Drop Dead Festival and Arvikafestivalen. The new “Alkimia” is the bands fourth effort and their most accomplished work to date. On this album, ASG refines their unique sound, a mix of post-punk, industrial, electro and dramatic pop. The first single “This is us”, released in November, became an instant under- ground hit. And each track has the feel and potential to become equally strong singles! "Alkimia" is a new era of dark popmusic and Agent Side Grinder will lead the way for bands that will follow. The perfect mixture of Joy Division, Suicide, Depeche Mode and with the same experimental lust as Einstürzende Neubauten.
