WORLD PREMIERE FOR GLASGOW:
To coincide with the Glasgow screening of “Seasons” on Wednesday May 21st at the GFT www.gft.org , the Glasgow International Bike Film Festival is delighted to announce the WORLD PREMIERE of “HOME”, the eagerly awaited feature from the creator of “Downhill Racer Race Guide”, Mark Huskisson.
Filmed entirely on location, “Home” is a film about discovery, about family and friends. It's a glimpse into the lives of people who feel at home on their bikes, at the passion that drives these different and varied characters, these racers and trail riders. “Home” isn't just a physical space it's a place where worldly cares fade and riding mountain bikes becomes your life. This film not only captures Scotland's stunning landscape, it captures the spirit of the place and of the people. Featuring reigning Junior World Downhill Champion, Ruaraidh Cunningham and trials phenomenon, Daniel Macaskill, Home is a must see for bike fans and film fans alike.
SPECIAL GUEST FOR SHEFFIELD SCREENING:
One of the stars of “Seasons” will be in attendance at the Sheffield screening on Tuesday 10th June in the Showroom cinema. If things go to plan, he may even be willing to answer questions from the audience after the film! We don’t want to give the game away just yet but you may be able to guess who it is!
