New Showbiz Analysis

Unbelievable Flying Objects is a specialized technical documentary that prioritizes aviation history and engineering failures over social commentary. Since the subject matter is confined to the mechanics of failed aircraft and military hardware, there is no narrative structure to explore identity or overlapping social categories. The film's narrow topical focus results in a lack of representation across most social categories, functioning primarily as a historical look at technological progression rather than a medium for discussing human diversity or social hierarchies.

Official Synopsis

A hilarious countdown of the black sheep of aviation, aircraft that have embarrassed their builders, enraged the owners and terrified their pilots. These are stories of aircraft that should have never been built, including highly imaginative concepts to “fly” tanks and jeeps directly onto the battlefield, a real flying saucer and starkly bizarre efforts to design and build a submarine that flies. We come to understand why these ideas were doomed from the start…
