Title Best
Father and Son (Otets i Syn)R2UK

    The Region 1 release from Wellspring presents the film at a ratio of 1.77:1 and includes a photo gallery (very likely the same as ours), a couple of weblinks and trailers for Father and Son and Russian Ark.

    The Region 2 UK release from Artificial Eye shows slightly more image, presenting the film at 1.78:1. Extras include Sokurov's 1995 short film A Soldier's Dream, a trailer for Father and Son, and filmographies for Sokurov, screenwriter Sergey Potepalov, and cinematographer Alexander Burov. Comparisons suggest that the Artificial Eye image is more detailed and sharper than the Wellspring image.

    The Region 5 Russia (RusCiCo) release, as mentioned above, presents the film at a ratio of 1.33:1. Audio is Dolby Digital 5.1. It may be out of print as RusCiCo no longer mention it on their website. Region 2 definitely has the best extras and possibly the better image, placing it slightly ahead of the others, although its altered aspect ratio certainly weighs against it.
