More stuff in the public interest for Sydney cyclists:
*****
Hi there,
I'm just writing with some news that I hope you may be interested in passing
on to members. As you may be aware, we are proudly opening Tomas Gislason's new film OVERCOMING (M) at Dendy Opera Quays this week. We're delighted to be giving this cycling docu-drama of the CSC 2004 Tour de France team a theatrical release. I'm currently attempting to raise awareness through the cycling community and various sources have mentioned your organisation as a starting point.
As a launch party we are holding a special Opening Night event on this Thurs (Feb 9th) at 6.30pm. It's an event to promote the film and raise awareness of cycling safety. A portion of proceeds are going directly to the Amy Gillett-Safe Foundation, and there's a bike ride to the event starting at Bar Coluzzi in Darlinghurst at 5.30pm. Upon arrival cyclists will be able to enjoy free coffee and refreshments. The Sydney premiere will then commence at 6.30pm! Bookings can be made on 02 92473800.
All details are currently on our website hrrp://www.dendy.com.au/special and I was wondering whether you would be interested in announcing the film's theatrical release and the Opening Night event in your various forms of communication? I can provide images, film specs and some in season double passes to see the film if you're interested in running a competition.
Let me know your thoughts at your earliest convenience - I'd be thrilled to be able to give this film a little more attention via the combined strength of our organisations.

Overcoming (M) 108 mins
Opens February 9th exclusively at Dendy Opera Quays

A gutsy tour de force of the greatest roadrace in the world, OVERCOMING is
the gripping new docu-drama from Danish director Tomas Gislason (co-writer
of Lars Von Trier's Europa and The Kingdom).
Legendary cyclist Bjarne Riis is putting together a team to race the Tour de
France. At time when Lance Armstrong seems almost beatable, his mission
seems possible. Yet the infamous race, impossible egos and gruelling
conditions make the possible a nail-biting journey. With a truly
international cast including Ivan Basso (Italy), Bjarne Riis (Denmark),
Bobby Julich (USA), Carlos Sastre (Spain), Jens Voigt (Germany) and Michelle
Bartoli (Italy), this is inspirational story is part "Hell on Wheels", part
"Touching The Void".
"absorbing... a high energy collage"
- Adrian Martin, THE AGE
OFFICIAL SELECTION - TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL
