Date: 20 Jan 12 - 23 Mar 12

Details

The Gotta Go Big extreme sports film season blasts into summer with a fresh line- extreme sports films screening every Friday night up until the 23rd of March.

Highlights include filmmaker Taylor Steele’s two surfing documentaries, Castles in the Sky and Innersection, which explore the culture of surfing and some of the best talent the world over. The snowboarding feature All.I.Can will take audiences down some of the most breath-taking descents across the globe, while The Art of Flight proves to be the perfect blend of adventure and high-energy snowboarding action.

Feature film screenings start at 8:30PM, but get down early to catch a selection of high-octane extreme sports short videos from local, national and international sports enthusiasts.

Local extreme sports people are encouraged to contribute by filming themselves at their sport and submitting their videos to the Piazza at piazza@cityofperth.wa.gov.au. At the end of the film season prizes will be awarded for the best film submissions. More details will be available soon at www.showmeperth.com.au
