Dramatic, moving and deeply human, this is the definitive story of Neil Armstrong – the first man on the moon.

Narrated by Harrison Ford, and featuring breathtaking NASA footage, remastered archive material and never-before-seen home movie footage, this intimate and often surprising documentary, tells the incredible untold story of a determined family man who became a reluctant world icon. 

Armstrong also includes major interviews with his family, an exceptional cast of fellow astronauts and aviators, those who knew him in his youth and later life, together with newly filmed sequences at some of the key locations from his life story.

Released as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of mankind’s greatest achievement, this special one-night-only event will feature exclusive additional footage recorded at the world premiere on 2nd July and will be followed by a Q&A hosted by Dara Ó Briain alongside Mark Armstrong (Neil's son), Maggie Aderin-Pocock MBE (BBC’s The Sky At Night) and the filmmakers.

*PLEASE NOTE THAT THE FILM WILL START PROMPTLY AT 6.20PM. THE Q&A HAS BEEN PRE-RECORDED AND IS THEREFORE NOT LIVE*
