“The production of The Shining has been well documented and analysed, but this is a story which has never been told. Pivotal scenes from the film took place in these areas, so going back to them felt like stepping into the movie itself.” – Katharina Kubrick.  

Directed by Paul King, the film is narrated by multi award-winning Michael Sheen.
