Senna (2010), which was reviewed in July, is being re-released by KRS. It is an excellent documentary on Formula 1 legend Ayrton Senna. Senna is a perfect mix of documentary film-making, research, adrenaline rush and ode to a man and features previously unreleased footage.

Driving for Senna was almost a religious experience and his strive for racing perfection is simply amazing… so much so that safety was never much of an issue. More than once this resulted in clashes with other drivers.

The film lists the defeats, successes and disappointments of Senna but it is not just a catalogue of events: it’s a chance to understand the man. The film is also a visual feast. Watching this documentary one will discover how much Senna was inspirational and why the sport and other drivers seem to still struggle to emerge from beneath the long shadow he cast.
