Teton Gravity Research + Anthill Films Announce unReal New York City Premiere
Popular Stories
(Jackson Hole, Wyo.) – June 10, 2015 – Escape the real world and join us for the New York City premiere of unReal July 9, 2015 at the Gramercy Theatre with doors opening at 7:00pm and the show at 8:00pm. The first feature film from the unprecedented creative union of action sport production companies Teton Gravity Research (TGR) and Anthill Films, unReal is inspired by the unlimited imaginations of some of the world’s best mountain bikers. Shot exclusively in 4K, the film will transport viewers into the unReal world, a wild place of wonder where there are no boundaries, no rules and anything is possible.
All attendees can enter the unReal Tour Contest for a chance to win a custom unReal Trek Slash fully equipped with Shimano XTR, a trip for two to the Whistler Mountain Bike Park, or a Sony Action Cam. The unReal film tour is expected to be among the biggest in mountain bike film history.
unReal is for those of
us who escape. A film that celebrates breaking free from the confines of
reality and venturing into a boundless world. This place isn’t remote or hard
to find, and yet many never see it. Here, glacial walls transform into mountain
bike trails, rain and snow aren't the only elements to fall from the sky and
thousand pound mammals become riding partners. Breathtaking visuals conjure
feelings of awe and pure joy; feelings that only those of us who venture
outside can truly understand. This film is dedicated to you — the
dreamers, the rule-breakers, the ones who never grow up, the ones who know the
secret — the ones who know the way into the unReal world.
Riders: Brandon Semenuk,
Brett Rheeder, Cam McCaul, Graham Agassiz, Steve Smith, Tom van Steenbergen and
Thomas Vanderham, with Brook Macdonald, Finn Iles, Ian Morrison, James
Doerfling, Matty Miles and friends
