Pleasure and pain, glory and defeat, mud andmore mud,
PURESWEETHELL tells the story of cyclocross, a sport
that has emerged as bike racings punk rock cousin.
Told from an insiders perspective, the filmmakers traveled to
cross competitions throughout north America, dug up
vintage photos and film footage, and followed cross luminaries
Justin Robinson, Gina Hall, Barry Wicks and Rick Hunter.
Shot entirely on Super 8 and supported by experimental
rock music, PURESWEETHELL surfaces both the strong
community behind the solitary sport and the grace that
arises amidst all of its grit.
Reader Reviews
The video documents a season of cyclocross racing in the United States. The filmmaker followed the circuit with an 8mm camera, taking footage of numerous races, and documenting the comments of the main participants off-camera while the footage rolls. Frankly, I found it boring. The film quality was grainy, by the very nature of 8mm film. There wasn't really a plot, just a series of comments on how much fun 'cross is, even if it does hurt like hell, and even if the footage was kinda neat, it was basically one long highlight reel, with no plot line or character development. I ended up donating it to my local bike shop to play on the TV during the day. That's about the only place it might be appropriate.
