Description:Established by Martin Scorsese in 2007, the World Cinema Project has maintained a fierce commitment to preserving and presenting masterpieces from around the globe, with a growing roster of more than three dozen restorations that have introduced moviegoers to often-overlooked areas of cinema history. Presenting passionate stories of revolution, identity, agency, forgiveness, and exclusion, this collector's set gathers six of those important works, from Brazil (Pixote), Cuba (Lucia), Indonesia (After the Curfew), Iran (Downpour), Mauritania (Soleil O), and Mexico (Dos monjes). Each title is a pathbreaking contribution to the art form and a window onto a filmmaking tradition that international audiences previously had limited opportunities to experience.
Martin Scorsese's World Cinema Project No. 3 on Blu-Ray, released by the esteemed Criterion Collection, is a remarkable anthology that celebrates global cinema?s diversity and artistry. This third volume features six meticulously restored films from different corners of the world: "Lucía" (Cuba), "After the Curfew" (Indonesia), "Dos monjes" (Mexico), "Downpour" (Iran), "Soleil Ô" (Mauritania/France), and "Pixote" (Brazil). Each film represents a milestone in its national cinema and offers unique perspectives on culture, history, and human experience. The Criterion Collection is renowned for its dedication to preserving important classic and contemporary films with high-quality restorations and insightful supplements. The project is spearheaded by Martin Scorsese?one of America?s most influential directors known for masterpieces such as ?Taxi Driver,? ?Goodfellas,? ?Raging Bull,? ?The Departed,? and many more. His commitment to film preservation has been pivotal through initiatives like The Film Foundation. Notable participants include Humberto Solás (?Lucía?), whose work shaped Cuban cinema; Héctor Babenco (?Pixote?), acclaimed for his raw portrayals of marginalized youth; Djibril Diop Mambéty (?Soleil Ô?), celebrated for his innovative African storytelling; Bahram Beyzaie (?Downpour?), a leading figure in Iranian New Wave; Juan Bustillo Oro (?Dos monjes?) who pioneered Mexican horror; Usmar Ismail ("After the Curfew"), regarded as Indonesia?s cinematic trailblazer.
