Banff Bantz

You're right, it ain't the swan pond at Cannon Hill Park. It's real life Iceland in all its rugged and forbidding glory, and it's a still from Why? a movie by the sounds-like-a-detective-but-definitely isn't, Hugo Clouseau. And you can totally see this stonking great movie at the Town Hall as part of the Banff Mountain Film Festival's World Tour. The seven-minuter follows a crew of French kayakers travelling to the remote seascape, asking the question all adventure sports sorts have at some point: “Why do we do this?”. Take in Why? as part of the nine-filmed blue programme (at 2.30pm), or opt for the red programme (at 7.30pm), which includes the awesome-looking Ice Call, to get a new perspective on the mythical Mer de Glace — a valley glacier at the heart of Mont Blanc. Moments of high adrenaline, intense serenity, and a whole lot of pretty guaranteed. For one day only: on Saturday, March 3 at the Town Hall, tickets are £13.
