synopsis
In director Fabrice du Welz's Calvaire, a traveling entertainer is on his way home for Christmas when his van breaks down in the middle of a village, where he quickly falls victim to a dangerously unhinged innkeeper determined to keep him captive. This dark, unsettling film from the New French Extremity movement is available for the first in the US in high definition from a brand new restoration via Yellow Veil films. "A dark absurdist descent into hell," says Guillermo Del Toro.
