Francesco Simeoni, Arrow's director of content for twelve years, set up this UK label in 2022 to release library titles on Blu-ray, from art-house films to genre classics. Discs are sold in the UK and, through a distribution deal with MVD, in North America, with on-disc extras and booklets of new and archival writing. Transmission, an imprint launched in 2025, issues cult films in new 4K restorations.
Fine new master that is largely rebuilt from the original negative instead of the HD DI. HDR / DV runs slightly too hot in the highlights but the DP supervised it and Radiance presents it as delivered to them by Severin.
Solid upgrade and the increase in resolution works well with the 16mm source in making it appear a bit more film-like than the Blu-ray, which is obviously very good as well
