Senna

Directed by Asif Kapadia

Through a back catalogue of intimate personal footage and galvanic F1 sequences, Asif Kapadia creates a symphony of emotion that not only excites but inspires you in ways many biographical documentaries usually find challenging. Senna carves a path straight to your heart with behind-the-scenes archive footage, as we follow legendary Brazilian motor-racing champion Aryton Senna through his personal achievements on and off the race track, flaws and all. Destined to be up for award nods later this year and already picking up accolades from Sundance and Los Angeles Film Festival, Senna is a truly rewarding watch, understated, and an extremely fitting tribute to the talented F1 driver. Don’t miss this treasure on the big screen second time around.
