This DVD edition has been mastered from very-good to excellent 35mm print materials. There is some dust and speckling and other flaws, but the viewing experience is very-good.

The film is accompanied by a pleasing music score compiled and composed by Robert Israel and performed on piano, violin and tuned percussion.

Supplemental material includes a 28-page insert booklet with short essays and notes on the films by Maxim Pozdorovkin and Ana Olenina.

We recommend this DVD home video edition of the film. The boxset is now out-of-print.
