Steve McQueen: The Man and Le Mans

Synopsis

'Steve McQueen: The Man and Le Mans'
By 1970, Steve McQueen ruled Hollywood. Hot off the back of classics like ‘The Thomas Crown Affair’ and ‘Bullitt’ he could now make the movie that was his life’s passion: McQueen's experience on 'Le Mans' changed his life forever.
Interweaving stunning newly discovered footage and voice recordings with original interviews, this is the true story of how one of cinema's legends would risk almost everything in pursuit of his dream.

Director: May Abdalla, Barry Gene Murphy

Year: 2026

Hello You is an autopsy of your reflection. This mirror has two sides: one that observes, and another that follows. Exploring stories of altered perception, from phantom limbs to the feeling of being a stranger in your own body, the experience stretches the split-second act of self-recognition into something you can watch unfold. Here you are asked not to look at yourself, but at the lenses through which you look.
