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.

Synopsis:
A film about Karen Blixen's friendship with the devil. In public Karen Blixen described herself as a 'story-teller', but within a small inner circle - amongst others, the young man of letters, Aage Henriksen - she talked about herself as 'the devil's mistress' and thanked him for his ability to convert everything into stories. Were her opinions pure literary ornament, metaphors for well-known phenomena, or did they have a deeper meaning? These questions led the later professor of literature, Aage Henriksen, onto a harrowing journey, which put him in connection with a number of occult phenomena. As a confidant on this journey, Aage Henriksen had his ten-year-old son, Morten. Today Morten Henriksen is the film's director and he wants to get answers to all the questions which have accumulated over the years, while his father was still alive.

Aage Henriksen had long since dropped out of touch with the much older Danish writer Karen Blixen, when she called him up one Sunday afternoon in 1958. For more than five years, he, like a number of other male Danish literati of his generation, had enjoyed a close, almost spiritual, relationship with the Danish author, who was 35 years his senior. 'Sick and pale, weighing just 35 kilos, she was a feeble and dying old lady. But to Aage Henriksen, she looked just like the wolf in grandma's bed.' Ultimately, she had become so demanding and manipulative that he cut all ties to her. But now she was on her deathbed, she told him, and if he wanted to see her one last time, this was it. Arriving at Rungstedlund, he found her laid up in bed. Sick and pale, weighing just 35 kilos, she was a feeble and dying old lady. But to Aage Henriksen, she looked just like the wolf in grandma's bed. Her face had a scarlet glow and a bright spot of light was flickering within the field. That's how Aage Henriksen saw it. He sat on her bed and they talked in their old way about literature and her worlds, but within a few hours an odd silence crept up on them. They sat like that for a while, staring at each other, then Blixen broke the silence with a 'Come on!'. Not knowing exactly what was going to happen, he leaned towards her and she gripped his neck with her long, white fingers, digging one finger so hard into his nape that a burning pain shot down his spine and his whole lower body cramped up. He wanted to say something, but she just asked him to leave.

Karen Blixen - Behind Her Mask is a dark, auto-therapeutic interview with the director's father, Aage Henriksen, a literature professor who suffered from life-long migraines after Blixen put her 'mark' on him.
