Tommy Caldwell and the REEL ROCK Film TOUR

Post by changlama » Mon Aug 06, 2007 8:41 am

Tommy Caldwell is coming to Squamish (he promises to be here!) to present a multi-media slideshow as part of the Reel Rock Film Tour on September 1, 2007 at the Eagle Eye Theatre. The Reel Rock Film Tour features 2 films, KING LINES and COMMITTED.


KING LINES
Chris Sharma's Search For The Planet's Greatest Climbs

Groundbreaking producers Josh Lowell of Big UP Productions and Peter Mortimer of Sender Films have teamed up to create KING LINES, pushing climbing films to a new dimension (and winning an Emmy Award in the process). Filmed on location in Spain, France, California, Venezuela, Greece, Utah, and Mallorca, KING LINES captures Chris Sharma's most outrageous ascents and visionary projects, and explores his fascinating lifestyle as a nomadic professional climber and global citizen. Dani Andrada, Dave Graham, Ethan Pringle, Melissa Lacasse, Jibe Tribout, and other outstanding climbers are also profiled.
film highlights:

* The first ascent of Es Pontas, a spectacular free-standing arch in the Mediterranean, and the hardest deep water solo in the world
* Fantasy bouldering on top of the mystical tepuy mountains of South America.
* Sharma's current project, Mutant Message, which will be the hardest sport route ever climbed.
* Plus: Multi-pitch madness in the Verdon Gorge; Searching for sea cliffs in Greece; Highball bouldering in Bishop; Big-wall trad climbing in Zion; Smoking the competition in Barcelona; and much more...


COMMITTED

From Hot Aches Productions, makers of E11, Committed celebrates a new era of hard and dangerous UK trad climbing. This short excerpt from the feature-length film includes heinous runouts, hairball first ascents, and horrific falls.

Tickets are $15 and are available in Squamish at Valhalla Pure and Climb On and on-line at www.squamishfilm.com


See you there!

The Howe Sound Inn and Brewing Company has agreed to be a sponsor so we'll have beer to serve before the show and during the intermission at a reasonable price.

The doors open at 7pm so that everyone will have time grab a beer and check out the silent auction items, proceeds from the silent auction go to the Squamish Access Society and the Climbers Access Society of BC.

See you there!
