A Brit Rock Film Tour 2024 Gala Screening will take place at 19.15 at The Bristol Performing Arts Centre in Bristol;. With introductions by the filmmakers and climbers, free stuff, a chance to meet the rock stars and a film maker Q&A.

It has three of the best new climbing films from one of the UK’s top adventure filmmakers, featuring some of the country’s most popular climbers. The 2024 tour delivers a stunning line-up of compelling stories from the vertical world in its strongest program to date.

Meet the Directors and some of the athletes, and free gear give-aways too!

The film line up will be:

NOSE JOB 50 mins

Alex Waterhouse and Billy Ridal are two recently retired competition climbers that attempt to apply their indoor skills to real rock in the most extra-ordinary fashion. With almost no traditional climbing experience and barely a multi-pitch climb between them, our audacious duo set out to be the first Britons to make a free ascent of the world famous Nose on El Capitan, Yosemite.The route was first climbed by Lynn HIll in 1993 and has sub-sequently only recieved eight ascents in 30 years. To say the odds were stacked against them would be an understatement comparable in size to the
route itself. Hold tight as the action packed movie tracks this most unlikely of journeys to success. Features contributions from Lynn Hill, Hans Florine and Leo Houlding.
CLIMBING BLIND II 35 mins

Following on from our first film ‘Climbing Blind’ (2019) where we see blind climber Jesse Dufton and sight guide Molly Dufton ascend the iconic Old Man of Hoy, this film picks up the story of Jesse’s incredible climbing career.
Born with a rare genetic disease; retinitis pigmentosa, Jesse no longer receives any useful information from his eyes. Despite this Jesse’s climbing has continued to progress. As well as competing on the para-circuit and making first ascents in Morocco, Jesse has managing to on- sight several E2’s. This season Jesse’ s ambition is set on a succesful on-sight of an E3 and chooses the infamous ‘El Matador’ rated 5.12d (E3/4) on the spell binding Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, USA. What unfolds is one of the most remarkable feats of persistance and human endevour you will ever witness. As terrifying as it is inspiring; Jesse takes several leader falls on route to the summit in a gruling encounter of the blind kind. If advertisy in life presents an oportunity to grow then
look no further than our movie Climbing Blind II.
FREJA’S BACK 25 mins

All-round climber Freja Shannon is back again for 2024. In the late alpine season of 2023 Freja took a serious fall on the committing North Face of the Droites in the French Alps resulting in a broken back. This film tell’s Freja’s story of initial horror and doubts to a full physical recovery. In Freja’s inimitable style and despite the physio’s prognosis, Freja returns to walking and then climbing in an unusually short time frame. We follow the ups and downs of Freja’s rehabilitation, go on a near calamatus ascent of The Forbes Arete (Aiguille du Chardonnet) which sets up the main objective in the Swiss Alps. Here Freja attempts an ascent of ‘Ave Ceasar’ an immaculate 7c trad route on the spectacular Petit Clocher du Portalet. Whilst physically recovered, as the story transpires it seems the psycological aspects of such a traumatic event may take more time to heal.Total Running Time Approx 120mins

Total running time 180 mins including an interval

There will be a bar open from 18.00. The show will start at 19.15
