Cameos from Zoe Wood\, John Dunne and Tanya Meridith all help paint an entertaining and vibrant picture of today’s trad climbing scene. \nThe film unfolds across some of the UK’s most amazing locations\, from the Cuillins to Pembroke\, from Sca Fell to Torridon via Yorkshire limestone. \nStrap in for another classic to rival anything in the BritRock canon. \nTotal running time – 100mins \nWhat do I need to know?\n\nWho is The Basement for?\nThe Basement isn’t just another youth centre – it’s the space you asked for\, designed by you\, built for you.
