There's also Making More (2011, 17 mins, DVD only), a newly commissioned documentary on the story behind the film, theatrical trailers for Schroeder's More, 1972's The Valley (which also has a Floyd soundtrack) and 1975's Maîtresse, and the package is completed with an illustrated booklet with new essays, biographies and notes on the soundtrack.You can place your order for this keenly anticipated release through Amazon UK (
