THE UNTOLD STORY OF A TELEVISION PIONEER
Over a sixty year career Gerry Anderson created some of the world’s most beloved children’s television series – including Thunderbirds, Stingray, Captain Scarlet, Space:1999, Terrahawks and Space Precinct. In a fitting tribute to this television and film pioneer Gerry Anderson: A Life Uncharted uses a wealth of intimate audio archive combined with cutting-edge AI deepfake technology to allow Gerry to tell his own story on screen for the first time. It is presented here as a brand-new, extended director’s cut with additional footage.
With exclusive access to previously unpublished interviews alongside new contributions from family, friends and colleagues, this emotionally charged and deeply personal documentary shares the untold stories that defined his life and body of work. From a poverty-stricken childhood, raised by a Jewish father and an antisemitic mother, through a lifetime of personal struggles, this documentary maps Gerry’s previously uncharted journey to puppetry pioneer, science fiction master and legendary creator.
