Narrated by Lynch himself, the immersive documentary explores the formative years of his life, from\u00a0his idyllic upbringing in small town America to the dark streets of Philadelphia, as the film recounts,\u00a0in compelling detail, the events that helped shape one of cinema’s most enigmatic and revered\u00a0directors.

Before it\u2019s UK theatrical release next year, the film\u00a0will receive it\u2019s UK premiere at this year\u2019s BFI London Film Festival, as part of the Documentary\u00a0Competition section.<\/p>\n

The deal was negotiated between Edward Fletcher, Managing Director of Soda Pictures, and Film\u00a0Constellation Ltd Founder and CEO, Fabien Westerhoff. \u201cThe film celebrates the creativity behind\u00a0the cinema we all love, through the life of one of its most remarkable directors.\u201d Says Fletcher.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re hugely excited to be working on this wonderful documentary, and are looking forward to a\u00a0significant theatrical release next spring; cinema audiences are in for a treat.”<\/p>\n
