| Summary |
Full of ups and downs, Sir Winston Churchill's life is a picaresque novel in its own right, following a dramatic curve with sudden accelerations and startling twists. The saviour of Europe, the war commander who could, through the power of speech, persuade a whole nation to fight back with fortitude, Churchill stands among the greatest figures of the 20th century. Carefully remastered and colorised, this documentary draws from a wealth of visual and sound archives, to give an all- encompassing view of both the private and public man. Through the contrasted chapters of his existence, it thus offers a new, unseen before perspective on Churchill's character and how he related to power and his contemporaries in order to lift the veil on a colourful, puzzling, paradoxical and captivating personality.
