For All Mankind


For All Mankind is a 1989 documentary film documenting the Apollo missions of NASA. It was directed by Al Reinert with music by Brian Eno.

In the DVD commentary, Reinert explains that he made the film after learning that huge amounts of footage shot by astronauts had been archived by NASA without ever being seen by the public. Al Reinert and editor Susan Korda sifted through six million feet of film footage, and 80 hours of NASA interviews to create the documentary.Reinert also explains that although the documentary purports to show a single moon mission, it is in fact a collage of footage from all six successful Apollo lunar landing missions. Furthermore, some images are presented out of context the images of rocket stage separation are test footage shot during earlier missions a shot used to represent Trans Lunar Injection is in fact footage of a Gemini mission reentry and some images of a spacewalk are from an earlier Gemini mission, not Apollo. ........
