A MTB FILM MADE IN PYRENEES
Ara River is the last wild river in the Pyrenees. Natural artery of the territory. This river’s water is part of
the DNA and the blood of these mountains. Kilometres of stories telling us about what the Pyrenees are
and about what they were.
The film will tell us about all this.

006. Martín, an Argentinian adventurer, rider
and film maker gets on his bike to a remote
place: San Nicolás de Bujaruelo. There he’ll get in
touch with river Ara for the first time and from
then on he will be tied to its waters, it mountains
and its people.
A film by
On the banks of river Ara Martín “draw” an unprecedented sporting challenge, made new friends that
changed his destiny, fell in love with the woman of
his life (another adventurer that today walks beside
him) and raised a family in Boltaña. On the banks of
this wild river, the last wild river of the Pyrenees.
1. Why a film?
When you have a strong dream you fight for it,
but if besides you turn everything you dream into
shots, frames, lights, stories, music and postproduction, what happens? You definitely want to
make a movie. Here it goes the first reason: We
dream movies.
There’s another detail. A film is the only product admissible in the film festivals we plan to participate
with this Project. From Torelló to Banff and countless international events that will give this dream
a great visibility during several years.
The more support we obtain, the better we’ll “play
the game”.

MORE KEYS TO SUCCESS
Just in case what you’ve seen is not enough…
Being the first
Nowadays there are not many opportunities of
“being the first”. In this globalized World, with so
much information that seemed almost impossible,
but with this Project we’ve done it!! We’ll be the
first:
· Making a MTB film in Spain and where’s better
than our mountains? The Pyrenees, probably one of
the most beautiful mountain ranges in the World.
· Riding the course of the last Wild River of the
Pyrenees. One of the most spectacular and hard
routes of the World.

Unexplored mtb territory
It seems quite difficult to find a challenge without
crossing at least “one or two” oceans, we know. But
right here, ten years ago Martín started to figure
out one.
An MTB challenge no one had thought of before
that was an unprecedented activity.
He visualized the itinerary very clearly and step by
step he run through it, rode it, rowed it and even
climbed it and, of course, he found it in one of the
most spectacular places of the world:
The course of river Ara. The last wild river of
the Pyrenees.
