The invention relates to a high-strength and brilliant quality barrier film for packing purposes, in particular for food packaging embodied in the form of a multilayer film based on of at least one carrier layer consisting of a biaxially oriented polypropylene film (PP-film) and of a functional layer based on amorphous and partially-crystalline polyamide (PA) which is produced by simultaneously stretching a primary multilayer coextruded film, wherein said polyamide functional layer consists of an external film layer and a central internal layer placed between two carrier layers. Methods for the production of the inventive film and the uses thereof are also disclosed.
