On September 5, 2025, The Eagle Obsession was showcased at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). The festival described the film as a “heartfelt meditation on memory, imagination, and the belief in a better tomorrow.”

The TIFF screening marked a milestone for the project, placing it on one of the world’s most respected stages for cinema. Early reviews have been strongly positive, calling the documentary visually stunning, deeply personal, and a passionate tribute to the enduring legacy of the Eagle Transporter and the Apollo era.

Critics and audiences alike have praised:

• Visual achievement: striking imagery and recreations of the iconic Eagle Transporter.
• Depth of perspective: comprehensive interviews with Space: 1999 cast and crew, including Nick Tate and Brian Johnson, alongside Apollo 16 astronaut Charles Duke and Inspiration4 pilot Dr. Sian Proctor.
• Emotional resonance: balancing nostalgia for the future imagined in the 1970s with a hopeful look toward today’s new space age.
• Personal significance: director Jeffrey Morris’s lifelong fascination with the Eagle brought to the screen with passion and vision.

The TIFF response reaffirmed the film’s central theme: imagination and memory are not just reflections of the past, but fuel for building a better tomorrow.

With this landmark screening behind us, the journey now turns to upcoming festivals and distribution opportunities that will bring The Eagle Obsession to a wider audience.
