This hypnotic and unconventional film about pop-culture superstar William Shatner fuses a wealth of clips and archive material with a revealing and moving interview.


Eschewing the format of traditional biopic documentaries, prolific film essayist and cinephile Alexandre O. Phillippe (Lynch/Oz, 78/52) gives actor and all-round icon Shatner freedom to ruminate on his life, career and philosophy. An intimate, wry and often hilarious film, it makes inventive use of clips and archive material, resulting in a powerful testament to a life lived to the full.
