The only thing better than one John Waters movie for a solid evening of trashy entertainment is seven, and thanks to the folks at New Line Home Video, Waters fans can now enjoy a gleefully offensive, career-spanning collection of his most memorable films in this set that's sure to give the neuters nightmares! All seven films, including Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, Desperate Living, Polyester, Hairspray, Pecker, and A Dirty Shame, are presented in their original aspect ratios in addition to featuring outrageously entertaining commentary by the director (other bonus materials vary from disc to disc), with a bonus disc offering a variety of audio and video clips detailing Waters' life from childhood to his current status as the Sultan of Sleaze!

As prisoner of war Clemens Forell, a German soldier during WW II, is sentenced to a labour camp in far east Siberia. After four years working in the mines he escapes from the camp (in 1949) and tries to get home to his wife and children. For three years he journeys through Siberia. An odyssey of 14,000 kilometers, set against a backdrop of desolate and inhospitable landscape, beset by danger (from both animals and humans). Constantly battling the worst nature can throw at him, Forell makes his way, step by step towards Persia and the longed-for freedom. Sometimes riding on trains, sometimes by boat, mostly on foot, he never knows if his next step won't be his last. His prosecutor Kamenev is always right behind him, and more than once it seems that Forell is captured again..

After their peaceable village is besieged by the Chinese communist army, circa 1949, a group of five valiant Burmese natives, under the direction of their devil-may-care ringleader, vow to beat back the invasion.
