Charles Lindbergh in Colour

January 1, 2008 - History

SYNOPSIS

An exceptional documentary which presents, for the first time colorized archives, on Charles Lindbergh's life, the hero of the first crossing of the Atlantic Ocean on May 21, 1927.

A travel aboard the Spirit of St. Louis thanks to the magic of computer animation helps us to understand what he was able to feel during his crazy crossing.

The fate of a man whose restless life reserves us many surprises: his membership in masonry, his relationship with the Nazi regime, his double even triple life...
