Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The resulting collaboration produced a series of films that are works of both sociopolitical concern and metaphysical melodrama. Stromboli, Europe '51, and Journey to Italy are intensely personal portraits that reveal the director at his most emotional and the glamorous actor at her most anguished, and that capture them and the world around them in transition.

Issued as part of 3-film set with Europe '51 and Journey to Italy : 3 films by Roberto Rossellini starring Ingrid Bergman.

Originally produced as a motion picture in 1950.

Special features: Disc 1: New high-definition digital restoration of the English-language version; Introduction by director Roberto Rossellini; Rossellini under the volcano (a 1998 documentary that returns to Stromboli fifty years after the making of the film); Surprised by death (a new visual essay by film critic James Quandt on the historical and artistic themes of the trilogy). Disc 2: New 2K digital restoration of the Italian-language version, Stromboli terra di dio; Adriano Aprà (new interview with film critic Adriano Aprà); Rossellini through his own eyes (a 1992 documentary on the director's approach to cinema, featuring archival interviews with Rossellini and actress Ingrid Bergman); New English subtitle translation.
