Eden Cinemas are today holding a special preview of Williams, the documented true story of Formula 1 legend Frank Williams.

Starting life with nothing other than a single-minded obsession for speed, Williams created one of the world’s most enduring Formula One racing teams.

However, in 1986, at the height of this success, a near-fatal car accident left him fighting to survive and the team’s future hanging in the balance.

The documentary from Bafta-winning director Morgan Matthews tells the story of the man’s rise to fame and how his family battled to keep him alive and the team afloat after the crash that left Williams wheelchair-bound for the rest of his life.

In order to enhance the experience of cinemagoers, UoMR (University of Malta Racing) have been invited to showcase a professionally-built race car. A reception will be taking place 30 minutes before the screening, where race car fans can have a closer look at the car and ask questions to the people behind its creation.

The special preview is taking place tonight at Eden Cinemas in St Julian’s at 9.15pm. For tickets, log on to www.edencinemas.com.mt.
