Believe - The Eddie Izzard Story
Hilarious and moving by turns, Believe is the story of triumph over adversity. Cameras followed Eddie on a stressful 'comeback' tour, and caught the story behind some of his best-loved material en route. Under time pressure and desperate for inspiration, comedian and actor Eddie Izzard delved into his own life story for new material. So began an accidental voyage into his past that paralleled his world tour and culminated in a moment of revelation about the source of his relentless drive.
Includes never-before-seen footage of Eddie's student days, his chain escape on a unicycle as a street performer, the famous 'wolves' sketch and much more. A provoking and inspiring tale of how tragedy can be turned to laughter by sheer force of will
Also includes commentary, an optional 'bleeped' audio track, and the following featurettes: Teddy Theatre, The Photograph, Vince Henderson interview, WWII: The Sequel promos, The Amazing Captain Keano, Wolves sketch, The Eddie & Rob Street Show
