The character that made Christopher Reeve famous was so much a reflection of the person who played him, as this moving documentary portrait reveals.

In 1995, Reeve was thrown from a horse and broke his neck, leaving him paralysed and requiring a ventilator. Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui’s film charts the actor’s rise, astonishing success as the Man of Steel and offers incredible insights into how Reeve and his family’s life was forever changed and enriched in ways they could never have imagined.

This special screening will have an in-person extended introduction from the film’s directors Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui.
