This DVD (and any other DVD released anywhere in the world) will play just fine on any multi-region DVD player, bought in USA or elsewhere. It will also play on most computers' DVD drives. Some consumers actually own a multi-region DVD player, without knowing it. All you need to do if you own such Philips, Akai, CyberHome or other DVD player is to use your remote control to switch it to multi-region mode. As such features are almost always not documented by the DVD player's manufacturer, we'd recommend you check your DVD player's capabilities by searching the web for the words 'videohelp DVD Player and Blu-ray Player region codes' and choosing the very first link found.
For our USA customers, if you need an advise for a inexpensive ($30-$40) US DVD player, please feel free to contact us or to read our recommenations here: Our DVD player recommendations. Please keep in mind that we do not sell DVD players.

Synopsis:
In this slick Danish thriller, a mysterious traveler arrives at the Copenhagen airport and the city is soon thrown into darkness. When the lights are turned back on, the stranger is rushed to a hospital suffering from bizarre Ebola-like symptoms. Soren (Ole Lemmeke), an ambitious junior virologist, is convinced that these symptoms portend an epidemic, and he risks his job to go to the apparent source of the disease: the backwaters of Romania. Accompanied by his medical student girlfriend (Kirsti Eline Torhaug), he searches Europe's impoverished netherworld hoping to gain the secret of the virus, and he soon becomes involved in grave-robbing and murder. Meanwhile, Interpol is pursuing occultist Vincent Monreau (played by the incomparably weird Udo Kier), who reportedly is responsible for firebombing a hospital in Bucharest and who appears to have some dark connection to the disease-stricken stranger. Monreau is convinced that the virus is of supernatural origins, presaged by the appearance of Stella Mala, a supernova supposed to appear at the beginning of Armageddon. Soon Soren's faith in reason is shattered when he is confronted by a plague that cannot be comprehended through science. In a similar vein to Lars von Trier's The Kingdom (1994), director Anders Ronnow-Klarlund uses disease as a metaphor for how the irrational and uncanny seep through the cracks of the ultra-modern societies of late 20th century Europe. This film was screened at the 1999 Toronto Film Festival.

When a killer virus is discovered in a patient at a Copenhagen hospital, resident doctor Soren sets about tracing the roots of this mysterious pathogen. Undeterred by the discouragment of his fellow doctors and girlfriend, Soren becomes consumed by his investigation. It becomes clear, though, that the virus is more supernatural than natural, and as an evil supernova looms on the horizon, Soren's girlfriend becomes the next victim to fall under the spell of the virus/spirit.
