REEL ROCK outdoor adventure film tour returns to Southwest Montana
The North Face presents the Bozeman return of the REEL ROCK Film Tour at the Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture on Wednesday, October 30th, at 7:30pm.
REEL ROCK is the world’s must-attend festival and networking event specially produced for thrill-seeking enthusiasts and rock climbers everywhere. The featured film in this year’s lineup documents the teaming of Alex Honnold (from the Oscar award-winning Free Solo) and Tommy Caldwell (from last year’s acclaimed The Dawn Wall), in The Nose Speed Record, a new documentary capturing their record-breaking race up El Capitan.
Now in its 14th year, the REEL ROCK Film Tour continues to bring the climbing community inspiring stories of perseverance, hardship and accomplishment. This season will be no different, as REEL ROCK 14 feature three new, larger-than-life, world premiere films at what’s become the climbing community’s spotlight event of the year.
To keep up with growing demand, the REEL ROCK Film Tour will visit 500+ locations in nearly 50 countries this year. The tour brings the best climbing and adventure films of the year to live audiences throughout the world. REEL ROCK shows are high energy, community events that go beyond mere film screenings to include prize giveaways, athlete and filmmaker appearances, nonprofit fundraising, and a festival atmosphere.
Founded in 2005 by groundbreaking filmmakers Josh Lowell and Peter Mortimer, the REEL ROCK Film Tour has grown into the premier global platform for award-winning climbing films that weave bold action, humor, heart, and soul into larger-than-life human stories for a wide audience, from the core climber to the armchair mountaineer.
“With REEL ROCK, the sport’s most accomplished climbers can share a candid portrait of their lives, both on and off the rock, with their peers,” said Mortimer. “The films are documentaries, so things don’t always go as planned – but it’s always entertaining, humorous, and in the end, revealing about the sport and our nature as athletes.”
Tickets for the Bozeman event are $20 in advance and available through www.theemerson.org. For more information about the films and additional tour stops, visit www.reelrocktour.com. •
