In the Shadow of the Moon is a 2007 British documentary film about the United States' crewed missions to the Moon.[1] After premiering at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the World Cinema Audience Award, it was given a limited release in the United States on 7 September 2007, and in Canada on 19 October.[2][3]
Although the film shares its name with a book by space historians Colin Burgess and Francis French that was also released in 2007, and both include many original interviews with Apollo lunar astronauts, neither work is a source of, or a tie-in to, the other.
