Yet, scholarship on film and television fans has primarily investigated fandom and fan practices in relation to the consumption, production, and criticism of fictional texts. In turn, non-fiction texts and fan practices have found considerably less attention. However, as this dissertation demonstrates, fans are active and creative participants in assembling, preserving, restoring, and disseminating materials from the past and in transforming these materials into print and online publications, podcasts, video tutorials, documentaries, and museum exhibitions.

I Am Your Father – David Prowse was a bodybuilder and actor who famously portrayed the role of Darth Vader. However, unlike most Star Wars stars, he was relatively obscure since James Earl Jones dubbed Vader’s voice. The story begins when a young filmmaker travels to London to propose that Prowse reshoot scenes from the trilogy. Their goal was to prove that Prowse could have played Darth Vader in that particular scene. In a symbolic way, the director, assisted by a group of enthusiastic fans, will try to give Prowse the recognition he never had.
