A film with a nice pace and great music that captures the world of fell running perfectly.

Well-made, characterful and entertaining trail running film set in North Yorkshire. Excellent.

Absolute banger of a film! The skill, the tenacity, the humour.

Frit Tam

“Brakes off, brains off.” Journey into the unpredictable world of fell running, where mud, weather, and laughter rule. From weekday rat catcher–turned–race director Mike to 74-year-old legend Wendy, with more than a thousand races to her name, this joyful portrait captures the community, chaos, and cake at the heart of the sport.
