PURE SWEET HELL tells the story of cyclocross, a sport that has emerged as bike racing's punk rock cousin. Told from an insider's
perspective, the filmmakers traveled to 'cross competitions throughout North America, dug up vintage photos and film footage, and
followed 'cross luminaries Justin Robinson, Gina Hall, Barry Wicks and Rick Hunter. Shot entirely on Super 8 and supported by
experimental rock music, PURE SWEET HELL surfaces both the strong community behind the solitary sport and the grace that arises
amidst all of its grit.
