Bro vs Mtn
Wednesday, January 27, 7:30 pm

Centennial Theatre
Canada, 2009, 15 min
Directed & Produced by Brock Anderson
The encounters of a “bro” riding his bike on the mountainous trails across BC through the Interior, the Lower Mainland and the North Shore of Vancouver, hitting all of his favourite riding spots along the way.




Bro vs. Mtn tries to capture the light side of the struggles a “bro” may encounter when riding his bike on the mountainous trails. The film follows loveable ginger, Wylie Easton as he travels alongside film maker Brock Anderson through the BC Interior, the Lower Mainland and the North Shore of Vancouver, hitting all of our favourite riding spots along the way. With the yellow and red leaves on the ground, we can expect some wet, tacky trails along the way.

Brock Anderson
Brock Anderson was born June 21st, 1991 in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.  Quickly, he moved to the Lower Mainland of British Columbia at just 2 weeks old. Here in BC, Brock has year after year, grown a passion for everything outdoors. At age 14, when the BC Teachers were on strike, he stayed home and self learnt how to edit video; combining his passions for mountain biking, photography and videography. His work has been highlighted on the front pages of NSMB.com and HuckMonkey.com among others. In 2008, Brock won a video competition hosted by Pinkbike.com /Red Bull. He was also featured in the 2009 Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival, where his video, “Brocation” was a finalist alongside the Collective and Dan Barham. Brock is currently attending UFV in the Kinesiology Program.
