Footprints On The Moon (1975)

Director Luigi Bazzoni’s unique vision of ‘FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON‘ is brought to life by the striking cinematography of Vittorio Storaro (three-time Oscar winner including ‘Apocalypse Now’). Florinda Bolkan (‘Flavia The Heretic‘) delivers a masterful, nuanced performance bringing captivating depth to the character of Alice – a young translator grappling with memory loss.Tormented by nightmare visions of a sinister scientist (Klaus Kinski) deliberately abandoning astronauts to die on the Moon, Alice is struggling to recall three missing days. A mysterious postcard beckons her to the enigmatic island of Garma. Once there, an unsettling revelation unfolds: the inhabitants recognise her presence during the unaccounted-for days, not as Alice, but as another person named Nicole. Confronting uncomfortable truths, Alice embarks on a quest to unravel the mystery shrouding her identity and the events of those missing days – a quest which culminates in murder and an extraordinarily surreal finale.Touching on mental health issues as well as on climate change, it resonates with today’s challenges while immersing viewers in an emotionally charged experience that transcends the ordinary.‘FOOTPRINTS’ unfolds as a mesmerising exploration of identity and the boundaries of perceived reality, memory, dreams, and existential mysteries; it stands as the most haunting and visually stunning Giallo you will ever see, presented here restored from 4K scans of the original camera negative, finally doing justice to the exquisite unearthly visions of its creators.THREE-Versions of the film:1) Director’s Integral Cut 96’2) Director’s Integral Cut with Italian Credits 96’3) USA Version 94’presented in 1080P Full-HDSpecial Features:From 4K-restored sources with new Full 1080P encodeLimited Numbered Edition with premium slipcover wrap-around featuring New Commissioned artwork + reversible sleeve (with original release artwork) on the Shameless proprietary "Yell'O" Blu-ray case‘Remembering the Moon’ introduction by star Florinda Bolkan‘Master of Light’ interview with Vittorio Storaro‘To the Moon’ interview with Ida Galli aka Evelyn StewartAudio commentary by Film-Critic Genre-Expert Rachael NisbetOriginal Italian theatrical trailerNew English Subtitles over the Optional Original Italian + switchable SDH over the English language versionFull HD 1080P encode from restored 4K scans of the original camera negative in 1.85:1 WIDE-SCREEN
