NZ Quake and mountains 6-Mar-2011 At 5:59:16 PM off_route

Hey guys, not many of you know me but my name is Brett Williams - I lived in Christchurch for 2 years and moved back to Melbourne in April last year. While living in Chch I made a climbing doco called Beyond The Plains, which was due to screen in Christchurch next month. This has been postponed until further notice due to the recent quake and the destruction of the building it was going to be shown in!

With quite a lot of friends displaced, I thought a good way to help would be to hold a screening of this film here in Melbourne as a fundraiser for Christchurch quake relief, all proceeds are going to the NZ salvation army Canterbury Earthquake Appeal.

Beyond The Plains explores the alpine environment of Twin Stream, the bouldering area Flock Hill, trad climbing mecca Mount Somers and the steep limestone sport crag Hanging Rock, as well as the local Port Hills of Christchurch (which have now been quite drastically re-landscaped!).

Tickets are available for $20 @ Paddy Pallin in Lt. Bourke Street, I hope many of you can make it!
