The Double Limited Edition Blu-ray presents a hypnotic and underseen entry in the giallo canon, where identity, desire and memory unravel in a fractured spiral. When Giovanni (Jean Sorel) is gunned down in an underground parking garage, the film pulls us into his final moments, reconstructing his life through a series of shifting flashbacks that blur truth and perception.
The Double Limited Edition Blu-ray follows the tensions surrounding Giovanni’s marriage to Lucia (Ewa Aulin), whose flirtations and unpredictable behaviour create fractures that ripple through his personal and professional life. As relationships entangle with suspicion and obsession, the film continually returns to the site of his death, looping time and perspective into something increasingly surreal. Director Romolo Guerrieri transforms a noir framework into a dreamlike meditation on masculinity, eroticism and the uncanny, delivering a stylish and psychologically disorienting experience.
Newly restored in 4K and officially released for the first time since its VHS era, this limited edition brings renewed attention to a long-overlooked European neo-noir, supported by a strong lineup of archival and newly produced extras.
