I’m considering the Nikon F75 for a film project requiring multiple exposures per frame.

Does the Nikon F75 have a mode where the frame does not advance, for an arbitrary number of multiple exposures on the same frame?

From the manual (page 70, takes a while to load), it is clear that creating multiple exposures with more than 2 frame is possible:

To take more than two shots on the same frame, rotate the Command Dial while pressing the [bkt] button again after the first shot is taken ...

But it’s not clear to me if it is always necessary to “prep” each additional exposure on the same frame with a manually pressing the [bkt] button as described.

I would like to use the same frame for (more than 2) multiple exposures, unattended, with a remote trigger.

Can the F75 be set in a mode, where the frame does not advance at all between exposures?

From the same manual that you linked to, and the last sentence in the same paragraph that you mentioned:

To take more than two shots on the same frame, rotate the Command Dial while pressing the [bkt] button again after the first shot is taken by depressing the shutter release button and while [multiple exposure indicator] is blinking so [multiple exposure indicator] appears without blinking. Repeat this operation as many times as you wish to continue taking pictures on the same frame.

That would indicate that you do have to manually prep the camera each time you want to take a multiple exposure. (Which would be a reasonable thing for a consumer camera, as you want to minimize the possibility of people taking multiple exposures by accident.)
