just got email from the banff film festival peeps about "radical reels".

http://www.banffaustralia.com.au/

seems it is a similar kind of thing to banff film fest tour - cool outdoorsy films etc - so why isn't it banff? although banff has already come and gone....i am so confused!

is it another selection of banff films? is it an aussie equivalent? can someone de-confuse me?!!?!

From the Banff Centre website ...

THE RADICAL REELS TOUR
What is the difference between the Radical Reels Tour and the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour?

Most World Tour screenings include a range of different themes (adventure sports, environment, mountain culture, heritage, etc.) and styles (action-filled shorts; longer, more comprehensive films; amateur and professional productions; etc.). The Radical Reels Tour presentations incorporate all these elements, but the focus is on dynamic, high-adrenaline films featuring sports such as skiing, climbing, kayaking, BASE jumping, snowboarding, and mountain biking, and new sports such as snow-kiting and speedriding. These activities continue to be included on the World Tour, but the Radical Reels Tour is for audiences who prefer screenings with “action films only”.
