In this talk we will discuss a path-integral formulation of the M5-brane (2,0) theory based upon a Lagrangian without Lorentz invariance but a novel SU(1,3) spacetime symmetry. This provides a UV complete five-dimensional field theoretic description that we will argue can admit a six-dimensional Lorentz invariance.
