Remember a time without mobile phones? Josh and Luke do. The film premieres on Netflix on the 26th August and celebrates the Olympic spirit in a week that would have seen us enjoying the drama of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. Sound design by our dear friend Will Cohen at String and Tins.

Look out for the ancient statues depicting each of the athletes that feature in the film. Conform, grade and a host of 2D, 3D and design work add to the spectacle of the story. Rising Phoenix is the second film that Time Based Arts has completed full picture post on. It is a beautifully crafted and powerful documentary with an important message of human endeavour and achievement at its core. It features several of the participants and their inspiring personal journeys to becoming elite athletes. The film charts the turbulent history of the Paralympic Games from its inception to the global pageant of London and Rio. Having directed the BAFTA nominated portrait ‘McQueen’ in 2018, the duo have turned their attentions to the Paralympic Movement.

Rising Phoenix is the latest feature documentary from film makers Ian Bonhôte and Peter Ettedgui, and our most recent collaboration.
