Last Son

You are a teenager living in Cleveland during the Great Depression and your father has just been murdered. You could follow in his footsteps at the family store, go off to college, or even turn to a life of crime. Or you could avenge him by creating the world's greatest super-hero: Superman. This wholly unauthorized documentary of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the two young creators of the Man of Steel, dispels old myths and raises staggering new questions about who (and what) Superman really is. Using never-before-seen home movies and lost historical artifacts, the 'secret origin' of Superman can finally, truly, be told -- for the very first time.
