An intimate and personal reflection on life, work, love and loss from one of the UK’s most influential and charismatic political figures – Tony Benn.

In this unique autobiographical feature-length film Tony Benn – political firebrand, prolific diarist, writer, charismatic anti-war campaigner, husband and father – presents his own personal reflections on his childhood and youth, marriage and family, political career and retirement through intimate, confessional interviews wonderfully illustrated by his personal photographic and film archives. Never before has a political figure of his calibre and reputation spoken to camera in such a direct way.

Best of Britannia is very proud to show this film on the night of its official release – Friday October 3rd.

Empire – “as classy, engaging, politically astute and rabble-rousing as the late, great Mr Benn himself” “brilliantly conceived and immaculately realised” *****

Times – “Makes you long for the age when politicians had charisma and ideas”

Radio Times – “Highly personal and poignant” ****

Owen Jones – “This documentary is a magisterial, beautifully shot testament to the life and struggle of Tony Benn. Not only is it the best possible memorial to this towering figure of the left, it gives hope that we too can keep his beliefs alive.”

Daily Mirror – “A towering testimony to a true political hero” ****
