In the late seventies celebrated director Francis Ford Coppola and his cast and crew ventured into the dense jungles of the Philippines to begin work on what would eventually become his masterpiece, "Apocalypse Now". But the journey from page to screen soon spiralled into a hellish, life-threatening nightmare that echoed the film's narrative. Plagued with adversity, one of the most influential films ever made had one of the most notorious shoots in cinema history that few survived unscathed. Compiled from rare on set footage filmed by Coppola's wife Eleanor and interviews with the cast, "Hearts Of Darkness" is the ultimate feature-length documentary, capturing the explosive events that lead to "Apocalypse Now" becoming an acknowledged classic.
