Film Movement will release on Blu-ray Cate Shortland's Somersault (2004), starring Abbie Cornish, Sam Worthington, and Justin Martin. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on March 31.
Description: Following a reckless encounter with her mother's boyfriend, teenage Heidi is forced to flee home and restart her life, finding refuge at a motel in the icy ski town of Jindabyne. There, she lands a job at a petrol station, befriends her warm co-worker Bianca, and meets Joe, a young man grappling with his own emotional baggage. As Heidi and Joe pursue a shaky relationship and search for normalcy against a bleak winter backdrop, they must confront their vices, feelings of isolation, and need for love and belonging.
Cate Shortland's stunning feature debut is a "frank and visceral film that at the same time exudes an unexpected innocence" (Los Angeles Times). Featuring early performances from Abbie Cornish and Sam Worthington, Somersault sheds light on the complexity of growing up and the quiet ache of loneliness.
Somersault has been restored in 4K by Piccolo Films from the original 35mm master negative and final mix master audio components. Restoration by Ray Argall in consultation with Anthony Anderson, Robert Humphreys, Sam Patty and Cate Shortland.
