Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood

In the summer of ’69 a ten-year-old Houston boy floats between backyard fantasy and adult reality just as the moon does overhead. He recalls moon-landing fever, blue-collar parents, and a top-secret mission that may or may not have happened. The film affectionately folds history into daydream without ever checking the arithmetic.
