Teton Gravity Research + Anthill Films Release ‘unReal’ Trailer

(Jackson Hole, Wyo.) – June 1, 2015 – Production companies Teton Gravity Research (TGR) and Anthill Films release the trailer for unReal in 4K on YouTube, the first feature mountain bike film inspired by the unprecedented creative union of the two production companies, and the unlimited imaginations of some of the world’s best mountain bikers.

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

“This unique creative union of TGR and Anthill was born out
of a shared hunger to do things that have never been done,” says Darcy Wittenburg
of Anthill Films. “Every segment in this film has pushed us further than we’ve
ever had to go on past films. Every segment had moments that legitimately
scared the whole crew!”

unReal is a
collaboration of great filmmakers and athletes that draws upon experiences and
ideas beyond the bike world,” says Steve Jones, TGR co-founder. “This created
opportunities to challenge the norm with the execution of imaginative concepts.”

unReal will
premiere to the world June 18 at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, B.C. Tickets
to the world premiere and other film tour stops are available here.
Releases on iTunes and Blu-ray/DVD will follow.

A #REALvsUNREAL contest
will run until June 22 encouraging the creation and sharing of juxtaposed
photos or video clips (one from the real world and one from the unReal world) with prizes including a
custom unReal-themed Trek Slash,
along with product from Shimano, Sony Action, Evoc, Smith and Western Digital.

unReal is
co-produced by Teton Gravity Research and Anthill Films. Written, directed and
edited by Anthill Films. Art direction and additional writing by Good Fortune
Collective. Presented by Sony in association with Shimano and Trek. Additional
support for the film is provided by Bike Magazine, Evoc, Knolly, Pinkbike.com,
