Zavvi - The Home of Pop Culture

A classic of French new wave cinema, Vivre sa vie has been described as "a perfect film" by Susan Sontag and "astonishing" by fellow critic Roger Ebert.

Director Jean-Luc Godard's critically-acclaimed drama tells the story of Nana (Karina), a young Parisian woman who works in a record shop but finds herself disillusioned by poverty and a rapidly failing marriage. With dreams of becoming an actress and making it in the film industry, Nana is disappointed when nothing comes of it and she quickly turns to a life of prostitution. When she finally meets a man who truly cares for her, Nana's hope returns but Raoul her pimp may have the final say.

This landmark of Godard's career is presented on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.
