Intelligent, personal and deeply moving… An affecting film about one of the world’s great unsung heroes,"Peter Darling".Imagine someone with the bluntness of George Carlin, the wardrobe of the Kinsey Sicks, and the following of Dame Edna and you’ll get an idea of what kind of social catalyst this man became for South Africans… One of the most entertaining and decidedly in your face documentaries about AIDS prevention… Most amazing is the fact that the film was the inspiration of a 15-year-old Australian boy who heard Uys speak to a school group and decided to make this documentary.

Between 1968 and 1972, nine American spacecraft voyaged to the Moon, and 12 men walked upon its surface. They remain the only human beings to have stood on another world. In the Shadow of the Moon brings together for the first, and very possibly the last, time surviving crew members from every single Apollo mission which flew to the Moon, and allows them to tell their story in their own words. The definitive story of going to the moon, told by those who went. Between 1969 and 1972 an elite group of men achieved an incredible dream. They were, and remain, the only human beings to set foot on a planet other than our own. These personal testimonies are interwoven with digitally remastered footage from Nasa film archives, much of it previously unseen and all of it hauntingly evocative of a bygone era. The result is an intimate and epic film which vividly communicates the daring and the danger, the pride and the passion, of this band of special young men.
