Reno Bike Project and Holland Project are stoked to announce an epic movie premier, right here in the biggest little city, “Veer”. A documentary film about bicycle culture and life, the premier is right up the alley of the local bicycle community.
TUESDAY, JUNE 23RD, DOORS AT 7PM, SCREENING AT 8PM Nevadan Hotel, 3rd Floor Club Cal Neva (West side of Virginia Street)
On the heels of National Bike Month, the Tour De Nez and the Reno Film Festival, Reno’s cycling culture gets a special pre-release screening of Veer. This award-winning, feature length documentary film explores America’s fast-growing bicycling culture by profiling five people whose lives are inextricably tied to bicycling and the bike-centric social groups they belong to. The film follows these characters over the course of a year, offering a behind-the-scenes look at their personal struggles and triumphs.
Described as a “breakthrough documentary,” the film made its world premiere at the Victoria Film Festival earlier this summer and has won a Jury Award for Best Doc at the Calgary Film Festival, won Best Documentary at the Calgary Underground Film Festival, and was nominated for Best Documentary at the San Joaquin International Film Festival. Veer examines what it means to be part of a community, and how social movements are formed.
Hope to see everyone there with their bike gear on, awesome attitudes, and the excitement for a great movie for a great bike community.
Thanks Everyone!!!
