William Friese-Greene dedicated his life to the development of motion pictures. His devotion cost him his family, his self-respect and his reputation. He died in poverty, while Thomas Edison was acclaimed in the history books as the inventor of the movies. Now a dazzling array of British film stars bring the remarkable and moving story of the unsung cinema pioneer to the screen in a tribute to celebrate the Festival of Britain.
