Jackie Stewart is the compelling documentary film on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Using immaculately restored and previously unseen archive footage, the film charts Sir Jackie’s life from his humble beginnings outside Glasgow, to the rush of excitement that heralded his first F1 World Championship title in 1969, and the darker years of the early 1970s when, despite opposition from those who believed that F1 should be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety.
Rialto Recommends: Jackie Stewart. This true story proves even Formula 1 champions can’t outpace grief, love, and the weight of legacy. Festival-praised and deeply human, Patrick Mark’s documentary takes you beyond the racetrack into the triumphs and tragedies of Sir Jackie’s life.
