Terrible weather in the run up to Kendal Mountain Festival didn't dampen the anticipation that had built up around the premiere of the Asgard Project film. The premiere had sold out in record time, with all 700 tickets being sold straight after going on sale, and before the film had even been finished by award-winning film maker Alastair Lee. The original four screenings was increased to deal with the demand by visitors to the major film festival. The popularity of the film was recognised at the festival where it was given the People's Choice Award, receiving five times as many votes as any other film.
Berghaus sponsored athlete Leo Houlding who led the Asgard Project said: "We set out to make blockbuster adventure movie the likes of which nobody has seen before, we totally nailed it!" Director of the Adventure Film Academy commented that the film was 'a climbing Mission Impossible.' To launch the James Bond style movie with flair the members of the Asgard Project team who attended the festival, which included Berghaus athletes Leo Houlding and Carlos Suarez, along with film crew and director Alastair Lee, donned tuxedos and relaxed at the after show party. You can pre-order your copy of the Asgard Project DVD, which is on sale in December, by visiting posing productions.
