Pink Floyd recorded an album, Obscured by Clouds, as the soundtrack to the film. After recording had finished, the band fell out with the film company, prompting them to release the soundtrack album as Obscured by Clouds, rather than La Vallée. In response, the film was retitled La Vallée (Obscured by Clouds) on its release.[1]
The actress credit "Monique Giraudy" is actually an alias of Miquette Giraudy, at the time a film editor and, later on, vocalist and synthesizer player with the progressive rock/space rock band Gong with her partner Steve Hillage; they later formed the electronic group System 7.
