SAVAGE CINEMA is the adventure and action sports films section of the San Sebastian Film Festival, created in collaboration with Red Bull Media House. A joint venture with the focus on turning San Sebastian into the global meeting point between cinema, action sports and the general public.
The second instalment of SAVAGE CINEMA focuses on real life adventure narratives in outdoor sports. On Any Sunday - The Next Chapter and Valley Uprising explore deep, intricate heritage, while Higher, starring pro snowboarder Jeremy Jones, showcases today's performance of one of the pivotal stars of snowsports. The gritty life and career struggles of David Martelleur in Danger Dave see the antihero confront his own self destruction in the urban landscapes of skateboarding, while a lifelong irrational passion for the sport of skiing is the premise for Days Of My Youth. Meanwhile, the freedom of living on the fringes of society is explored inThe Greasy Hands Preachers, where artist Shinya Kimura creates unique motorcycles that exceed the trappings of commercialism.
A selection of six films reflecting the principles of SAVAGE CINEMA; to showcase unique, compelling lifestyles while at the same time redefining the very realms of possibility in action sports films.
