DVD Rating: **1/2

Read Anton Bitel's film review of Eden Log

The disc comes with a choice of watching the film's original French version (with English subtitles) or an English dub. Even non-purists may prefer the former, given that many of the lines are mumbled in English, which only adds to the hermeneutic difficulties of Vestiel's already near impenetrable network of ideas.

Apart from some trailers, the only extra is a solid half-hour 'making-of' featurette, narrated by the film's co-star Vimala Pons. Pons not only outlines the film's production (with much of the shoot taking place in a vast, cold mushroom bed), but also helpfully teases out some incisive interpretations from the film's different layers of meaning.
