In an early announcement to retailers, Starz/Anchor Bay is preparing 'Citizenfour' for Blu-ray sometime later this year.
2014’s Academy Award winning documentary 'Citizenfour' is a real life international thriller that unfolds by the minute. With unprecedented access, this gripping behind-the-scenes chronicle follows award winning director Laura Poitras (My Country, My Country) and journalist Glenn Greenwald’s remarkable encounters with whistle-blower Edward Snowden in a hotel room in Hong Kong, as he hands over classified documents that provide evidence of mass indiscriminate and illegal invasions of privacy by the National Security Agency (NSA). The documentary not only shows the dangers of governmental surveillance, but makes audiences feel them. After seeing the film, viewers will never think the same way about their phone, e-mail, credit cards, web browser or digital footprint again.
Specs and supplements have yet to be revealed, but suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $26.99.
