  Cinema Guild has officially announced that it will release on Blu-ray Nuri Bilge Ceylan's latest film, The Wild Pear Tree (2018), starring Alexandre Mallet-Guy, Labina Mitevska, Zeynep Ozbatur Atakan, and Olivier P�re. The release will be available for purchase on August 20.
Synopsis: Sinan (Aydin Dogu Demirkol), an aspiring writer, returns home after university hoping to scrape together enough money to publish his first novel. He wanders the town encountering old flames and obstinate gatekeepers and finds his youthful ambition increasingly at odds with the deferred dreams of his gambling-addict father (Murat Cemcir). As his own fantasies mingle with reality, Sinan grapples with the people and the place that have made him who he is.
Following in the great tradition of family dramas like Death of a Salesman and Long Day's Journey Into Night, The Wild Pear Tree weaves an evocative tale of creative struggle and familial responsibility with inspired performances, sumptuous imagery and surprising bursts of humor. It's one of Ceylan's most personal works to date, a film as rich, layered and uncompromising as the novel its headstrong hero is working to publish.
Special Features:
- Q&A with Nuri Bilge Ceylan at the US Premiere
- Theatrical Trailer
- Booklet featuring an essay by film critic Bilge Ebiri

Their release of Once Upon a Time in Anatolia was pretty great. I have high hopes for this one. |

Winter Sleep was wonderful. OUTA was revelatory (the girl walking in with candle light, WOW!). Very much looking forward to WPT. |
