Anna Brannon had to deal with a tornado to get her first major production over the finish line (I’ll show myself out later). She was great to chat with as the challenges the crew faced were tough but they managed to get everything done and we’re grateful to show it as part of the film fest. This week continues to fly by and we’re having so much featuring all of these awesome filmmakers!
Missouri isn’t a place most people think of when they think of ultra running. But it’s here on the rolling hills and chunky karst terrain where race director Shalini Bhajjan has built Terrain Trail Runners, a community of long distance ultra trail runners. On April 15th, 2023, three members of this community set out to complete Shalini’s toughest race and run 100 miles through the Ozark Foothills in Wildwood, MO. What started out as a beautiful day quickly turned into a weather nightmare when a tornado touched down 10 minutes from where the race was being hosted. Tough calls were made and limits were tested, ending in a finish that no one saw coming.
