In 1977, Star Wars became a cultural phenomenon that single-handedly revitalized a stagnant film industry, and forever changed how films were sold, made, and marketed. Movies would never be the same again. A year later, neither would television. In 1978, CBS aired the two-hour Star Wars Holiday Special during the week of Thanksgiving and was watched by 13 million people. It never re-aired and is considered one of the worst shows to ever air on TV. While some fans of the franchise are aware of this dark secret, this bizarre two hours of television still remains relatively unknown among the general public. Simply put, we will answer how and why did the Holiday Special get made. (South by Southwest Film Festival)

A compelling documentary insight into the backstage of the making of the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special, a work that many people associated with it would rather forget, and of which George Lucas legendarily declared that if he had the time and a sledgehammer, he would seek out every existing copy in the world and destroy it. A Disturbance in the Force explores the constellation of factors that gave rise to one of the most fascinating “so bad it's good” pieces of television entertainment, while not mocking the Star Wars Holiday Special, but recognizing it for what it simply is.
