Independent British distributors Second Run have revealed that they will begin releasing on Blu-ray. Their first release will be acclaimed Portuguese director Pedro Costa's latest film, Horse Money (2015), starring Tito Furtado, Antonio Santos, and Vitalina Varela. The Blu-ray release is expected to arrive on the market in early 2016.
Synopsis: The film follows Ventura - the enigmatic lead of Costa's earlier groundbreaking film Colossal Youth (2006) - as he traverses a seemingly endless night populated by the ghosts of his, and his country's, past. From the restless spirits that haunt this decaying urban landscape, Costa conjures a spellbinding and unclassifiable cinematic experience.
Winner of the Best Director prize at the 2014 Locarno Film Festival, and already featured in many worldwide critics' Top 10 Films of 2014 lists, Horse Money is a hauntingly beautiful contemplation of Portugal's tumultuous past and uncertain future from one of the true poets of contemporary European cinema.
Note: Second Run's catalog includes films from such renowned directors as Pedro Costa, Andrzej Zulawski, Milos Forman, Andrzej Wajda, Karoly Makk, Miklos Jancso, Věra Chytilová, František Vláčil, István Szabó, and Apichatpong Weerasethakul, amongst others.
