A story dedicated to Christopher Reeve

Sundance Film Institute is having a limited time screening of the new 2024 documentary 'Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story'. Sundance Film Institute releases the new 2024 documentary 'Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story' created by two documentary filmmakers Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui and also offers screening times to audiences to view the documenatry.

On this documentary dedicated to the life of Christopher Reeve the filmmakers go to the family and home of the former star and follow him through his career and also his family life. Moving backward and forward in time, filmmakers Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui expertly weave together a dual narrative exploring the life-changing impact of two pivotal moments in Christopher Reeve's career: being cast in 1978's Superman and becoming paralyzed in 1995.

Decades before superheroes took over the cinemas, Reeve made the world believe a man could fly; his accident brought worldwide awareness of disability. In Super/Man, Reeve's family and close confidantes demonstrate remarkable candor in their reflections on life before and after the accident. The result is a deeply moving film foregrounding the man behind Superman — not a hagiography, but a full-fledged portrait that encompasses both the soaring heights and the dark depths of Reeve's journey.
