Darlington's Film Event of the Year!


Tomorrow evening, Wednesday December 8th, sees the local premiere, in Darlington Arts Centre, of "Beauty and the Bike", a film shot, produced and directed by my friends Richard Grassick and Beatrix Wupperman from the Darlington Media Group. The film follows a group of girls from Darlington as they travel to the cycle-friendly town of Bremen in Germany and bring their experiences back with them to their home town.


Have a look at their website www.bikebeauty.org and also at their 8 minute trailer, which is on the website and also on YouTube.
If you get there early, there's an exhibition opening at the Media Workshop (drinks and food) at 6pm, with the film starting in the cinema at 7 p.m. There's another showing at 8.30. There are two special guests, Dr. Helga TrĂ¼pel, the Bremen Member of the European Parliament, and the Honorary Consul for Germany in the NorthEast, John Knight.


Tickets for the film (£3) are available at the Arts Centre Box Office, by phone and online.
