London, UK – On June 24th, 2025, the highly anticipated documentary “The Rendlesham UFO: The British Roswell” will premiere at the Raindance Film Festival. Directed by Mark Christopher Lee and Roderick Godman, the film delves into the infamous Rendlesham Forest UFO incident of 1980, which has long been considered the UK’s most compelling and well-documented UFO event.
Rather than simply retelling the story, the documentary is positioned as a challenge to government secrecy and a call for disclosure. Lee boldly calls on the current UK Prime Minister and former U.S. President Donald Trump to reveal the truth about what really happened in Rendlesham over four decades ago.
“This isn’t just another UFO story,” says Lee. “Our research confirms that there was a deliberate cover-up by the Thatcher government, in coordination with the U.S. military. What they were hiding may have involved advanced technology being tested without public knowledge – technology that may have gone disastrously wrong.”
The film combines rare archival footage, firsthand military witness accounts, and original field investigations in the forest itself. Lee and his team documented anomalous and unexplained phenomena, which seemed to mirror the bizarre events reported by U.S. Air Force personnel stationed at RAF Woodbridge in December 1980.
According to Lee, the incident and its ongoing cover-up hold significant implications that can no longer be ignored. With increasing global openness around UFO phenomena, especially following the U.S. Pentagon’s recent disclosures and congressional hearings, Lee insists that the UK must come clean.
“We are calling on the current UK Prime Minister, as well as President Trump – who has hinted publicly at knowing more than he’s allowed to say – to tell the world the truth,” Lee adds. “The public deserves answers.”
The film, which has already been nominated for Best Director at the Raindance Film Festival, is expected to ignite widespread public interest, not just among UFO enthusiasts, but among citizens who believe in transparency, accountability, and the right to know what governments are keeping hidden.
As pressure continues to mount worldwide for disclosure, Lee’s film could mark a turning point in the UK, where official silence has reigned for far too long.
