The Rider (2018)
Brady Jandreau plays a young man who has suffered a near-fatal head injury in a rodeo accident. Rodeo was his life but he has been warned that riding again could kill him. This is a heart-breaking, thought-provoking insight into a community that values masculinity and toughness above all else, and shows what happens when that world is turned upside down. It’s a remarkable and unique film – Brady was a bona-fide rodeo rider and the injury is real, his family and friends play versions of themselves in a semi-biographical story.
