Andrzej Żuławski's thought-provoking masterpiece of Science Fiction!

Introducing Eureka's 2-Disc Blu-ray set for 1988's On the Silver Globe, a sci-fi film from the true maverick of European cinema, Andrzej Żuławski (That Most Important Thing: Love). This masterpiece is about a team of astronauts who land on a desolate planet and start a new society.

When filming was 80% complete, the Polish government ordered the production to be shut down and all the negatives be destroyed. Miraculously, the original film reels were preserved and ten years later the film was presented at the Cannes Film Festival to great acclaim.

IMPORTANT NOTE: An all-region Blu-ray player is required to view this movie. Standard U.S. Blu-ray players will NOT read Region B discs. If you're looking for a reliable all-region player, we've got you covered!
