Gill, Tom, Bryce and Alan W were all looking forward to the Banff Film Festival Tour on Saturday 21st March. Unfortunately, the screenings were correctly cancelled due to Covid-19. A new provisional date is 26th September, but that will depend on the situation closer to the time. This is the Banff Film Festival 2020 World Tour Trailer. Here are some other climbing/adventure films to help while away your Covid-19 isolation:
