Raiders!: The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made

In1982, three 11-year-old boys in Mississippi decided to duplicate their all-time favorite movie, which happened to be Raiders of the Lost Ark. It required seven difficult years that put their friendship to the test and came dangerously close to destroying their mother's home. They had finished every scene by the time the movie was over, with the exception of the one involving the explosive airplane. After waiting for thirty years, they decide to try to make their boyhood fantasy come true by constructing a copy of the 75-foot-long "Flying Wing" jet from Raiders of the Lost Ark in a mud hole in the middle of the woods in Mississippi... and then detonating it. This is the narrative of how "the best fan film ever made" came into existence, and it tells how it was made.
