Radiance Films is founded on a passion for cinema: a series of films, books, merchandise and more curated from arthouse provocateurs to genre classics. Each release is created from the best available materials and packed with supplementary features and extensive booklets, with operations primarily in Europe and team members in the US, UK, Japan and France.
Launched by Francesco Simeoni in 2023, the label champions world cinema and rediscovered cult gems—debuting with The Working Class Goes to Heaven and Big Time Gambling Boss—and continues with limited editions (OBI strips, booklets, new restorations) followed by standard editions. Its adventurous curation spans continents and eras, pairing meticulous presentations with context‑rich extras that invite discovery.
