Also known as 'Kumo no Muko, Yakusoku no basho' and 'Beyond the Clouds'. I bought this DVD in the UK (DVD region 2). The quality of the release (done by ADV) is reasonable, but not perfect.

Image quality

Two fields are often blended into a single frame. This is particularly noticeable in scenes with fast movement.

The following is a still frame taken from about 74 seconds into the feature. You can click on the image to download the full frame.
