The David-versus-Goliath story of the man who built the war winning jet fighter in the face of huge opposition from the scientific community, the government and big business.
In 1937 Whittle ran the world’s first turbojet engine leading to a revolution in the way we travel – all of today’s jet engines can trace their origin to Whittle’s work.
Whittle’s invention of the TurboJet marked the dawn of the dawn of the jet age.
With all the science behind Whittle’s turbojet, an engineering marvel, the fundamentals can be summed up quite simply however as “SUCK, SQUASH, BANG, BLOW”– Kerissa Khan – Former President of The Royal Aeronautical Society
“The production of FRANK WHITTLE: A GENIUS IN THE FAMILY originally set out to explore a simple question:
What is it like to have a genius in your family?
Ian Whittle’s deeply personal testimony about his memoires of his father formed the foundations of the story which we then broadened with the support of a variety of aviation experts and contributors that permitted not only a biographical presentation but also a deep look at the trajectory of Whittle’s invention.
The film took more than four years to produce, taking in locations from the across the UK. The result is that it reveals Frank Whittle as a fascinating and complex man who not only changed the world but allowed us to see what it looks like.” – Nick Horrell, Producer, Director and Writer.

Gabriela Carneiro da Cunha & Eryk Rocha’s 2024 documentary about Indigenous peoples’ profound connection to nature and the struggle against deforestation, a grave threat to their way of life and the ecosystem they call home.
In collaboration with Brazil’s Indigenous Yanomami people, THE FALLING SKY follows the Yanomami leader and shaman Davi Kopenawa as he fights to return the world to balance in closely observed rituals and trenchant comments on the ruthless logic of a materialistic outside culture. Illegal logging, gold mining, and the deadly mix of epidemics these intrusions spread threaten the existence of the Yanomami.
Based on an acute understanding of geopolitical forces, Davi Kopenawa holds up a mirror to capitalist societies of “the merchandise people” and the unsustainable lifestyle of the so-called “developed countries” that threaten the survival of humanity.
Fresh from theatrical release sponsored by the Museum of Modern Art.
