The Bedlamites are a group of fell runners who organise races up some of the most well-known and beautiful peaks in and around Yorkshire, UK. But these runners don't meet on a clear sunny day at the weekend or on a summer's evening. These races are run in winter, sometimes through thick fog and rain, on grassy, uneven and slippery terrain and during the night.
Under the cover of darkness they meet to race up and down the Fells using only torches to guide them over the harsh terrain in severe weather conditions.
Through this film we hope to transport the audience into this black and white world of nighttime, off-road running where moonlight and a chilly wind reveal the landscape in a very different way; where the snaking of lights up hillsides provide a luminous spectacle and where the narrow spread of the torchlight gives each runner a focus to drive them on up the hill.
Filmed over the course of a year, this film follows the story of one eight year old boy, and his friends and neighbours, all of whom live in the caves beside the destroyed Buddhas of Bamiyan.
The Conundrum being, Do I live life my way or do I live life their way? The start of a new dawn finds David Yohannes Reeves asking himself this very question. It is a situation that requires some thought.
Day to day life often thrusts us into precarious positions; that is confrontations with unpleasant despicable people, encountering behaviour that is selfish or deliberately harmful. No matter how seemingly inconsequential and trivial this negative act is, it should be responded too. Surely? But then again, probably not. Is it really worth exacerbating this awkward and possibly stressful situation further that it might escalate into full-blown violence? Again, probably not. But never to act to correct what is wrong? Is that right too? This is the conundrum. The film is the statement.
Be concerned; be concerned by a man wearing fucking antlers.

In one legendary week on Ben Nevis in 1960 Jimmy Marshall and Robin Smith climbed six first winter ascents on consecutive days, including the mini Alpine-route, Orion Face Direct. Exactly 50 years later Dave MacLeod and Andy Turner pay tribute to Smith and Marshall by setting out to repeat all the routes that were climbed in that famous week.
