Pedal Nation presents A film by Bones over Metal
On Feb 25th, 7pm at Clinton Street Theater - Get Tickets here
Awesome Land: Women Of Dirt celebrates the mountain bike while celebrating the women who love them. A beautiful and energetic film that opens a window into an awesome world.
In an effort to reach a wider audience, the filmmakers from Bonesovermetal.com decided to create a full-length film that features some of the sport’s top up-and-coming female riders, documenting their lives on and off the saddle.
“The inspiration for Women Of Dirt starts first with the women who make up an important part of our sport and yet get overlooked,” said film producer Mark Brent. “We felt that our lifestyle gets overlooked, and that the women in our sport get overlooked. By focusing on two elements that we don’t see in DVDs, we are telling a story that hasn’t been told.”
Awesome Land: Women of Dirt, a documentary with Tammy Donahugh, Stephanie Nychka, Cierra Smith. Written and directed by Mark Brent. 62 minutes. Not rated, suitable for general audiences. In the final moments of Awesome Land: Women of Dirt, two of the professional female cyclists championed by this unabashedly enthusiastic sports documentary go tearing down a winding, bumpy trail in a forest for the sheer pleasure of it.
