Viewing German Amazon Movies in the UK.

[Hintermann]

There is a sci-fi film called Enter Nowhere that I want to watch/buy but there is a problem. The German release BD, the only one so far, is currently unavailable and I don't want the DVD unless there is no other option. It is not available on Prime Video UK but available for purchase on Amazon.de Prime.

But if I buy it from German Amazon (with whom I have an account), will I be able to watch it via the Amazon Prime App on my UK based smart TVs or be restricted to seeing it on my PC via the German Amazon site?

Amazon uses geoblocking (except some of their original content), so you'd probably need a VPN to stream the movie in the UK.

But that seems to apply only to saved FREE movies on Amazon Prime, including Amazon Originals. We live for 6 months of the year in India and using the Amazon Prime TV app there allows be access to all Prime movies that I have bought but not those on my free watchlist.

This films is availabe for sale (HD) on Amazon Prime Germany but not the UK.

For example, I have Jaume Balaguero's 2021 film The Vault, an AMAZON ORIGINAL film, saved on my Prime Video list. Yet, I cannot access it in India (but now have the blu-ray there). Similarly, I had Midnight In Paris (not an ORIGINAL) saved on Prime when it was free and could not see it while in India. It went off prime while I was still in India a couple of years ago and I went to my UK account and bought the HD version. I was immeddiately able to see it there without any issues.
