DOCUMENTARY - Al Reinert’s FOR ALL MANKIND (1989, 80 min) documents the Apollo missions of NASA. Instead of being a newsy, fact-filled documentary. The director focuses on the human aspects of the space flights. The only voices heard in the film are the voices of the astronauts and mission control. Reinart uses the astronauts' own words from interviews and from the mission footage. The score by Brian Eno underscores the strangeness, wonder, and beauty of the astronauts' experiences - experiences which they were privileged to have for a first time "for all mankind."
