Director Sean Menard’s ‘Run Terry Run’ is a masterclass on how to properly build a documentary around archival footage, see it on the Paramount screens!🎞️🏃

The extraordinary story of Canadian icon Terry Fox will be told like never before in Run Terry Run, a new feature-length documentary directed by acclaimed filmmaker Sean Menard. The film offers an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at Terry’s legendary 1980 Marathon of Hope, drawing from 96 reels of never-before-seen footage and unheard audio interviews that have remained untouched for 45 years.🎥

“Films like ‘Run Terry Run’ are not just important but essential, reframing memory as an act of resistance to the relentless barrage of (often falsified and incomplete) information that makes up our doomscrolling sessions. What we see on-screen reminds us of the importance of bearing witness, yes. But it also reminds us that once we shape our world to our liking, we stop asking it any more questions.” ROGER EBERT⭐
