London, UK – Filmmaker Mark Christopher Lee is set to release a groundbreaking new documentary that aims to put an end to the 40 years of secrecy surrounding the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident of 1980. The incident, which is widely considered as the UK’s most compelling and well-documented UFO event, has remained shrouded in mystery and government cover-ups for decades.
Lee’s documentary, titled “The Rendlesham UFO The British Roswell,” goes beyond just retelling a historic mystery. It is a direct challenge to government secrecy, with Lee openly calling on the UK Prime Minister and former U.S. President Donald Trump to disclose the truth about what really happened in Rendlesham over four decades ago.
“Our research confirms there was a deliberate cover-up by the Thatcher government, in coordination with the U.S. military,” says Lee. “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 – where Lee and his team documented what they describe as anomalous, unexplained phenomena. These strange occurrences appear to mirror the bizarre events reported by U.S. Air Force personnel stationed at RAF Woodbridge in December 1980.
“What happened there hasn’t gone away. People still visit Rendlesham and report strange behavior, odd readings, and physical effects. We experienced it ourselves, and we were lucky enough to capture it on film,” says Lee.
In light of increasing global openness around UFO phenomena, especially following the U.S. Pentagon’s recent disclosures and congressional hearings, Lee insists that the UK must now come clean. “This film is our way of forcing the conversation forward. 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. The public deserves answers.”
The documentary, directed by Lee and Roderick Godman, is titled “The Rendlesham UFO The British Roswell” and will premiere at the Raindance Film Festival in London on June 24th. It has already been nominated for Best Director at the festival.
The film is expected to spark 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 mounts worldwide for disclosure, Lee’s film could mark a turning point in the UK, where official silence has reigned for far too long.
