LandxSea Monthly: Make It to Munich + Q&A with filmmakers

Join LandxSea for their next monthly screening, in their series of Powerful Films about People & Planet. MAKE IT TO MUNICH is an uplifting story of human willpower, scientific ingenuity, and the questionable wisdom of making a film with one hand while the other one grasps the handlebars on a 1200-kilometre cycle! We are thrilled to announce that the screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director Martyn Robertson, Ethan Walker and Professor Gordon Mackay. Shot in the run-up to Euro 2024, Make It To Munich follows Ethan Walker, a promising teenage footballer from Aberdeenshire who, just months into a football scholarship with an American University, suffers life-threatening injuries in a road traffic accident. Enter pioneering Glasgow surgeon (and former Rangers footballer) Professor Gordon Mackay, to oversee Ethan’s recovery when he decides to cycle from Hampden to Munich for Scotland’s opening match against Germany in Euro 2024 - just nine months after narrowly avoiding death! Entrusted by Scotland’s National Team to carry the match pennant on his back for the whole journey and deliver it in time for kick off, Ethan is accompanied in his epic quest by Gordon, Tartan Army foot-soldier Stephen Collie, and the film’s director Martyn himself. “The film takes its cue from Walker's personality, and oozes positivity as it slowly develops an emotional kick and becomes both an ending and a new beginning for the irrepressible young man.” Screen DailyDocumentaryPT2H3M12A2025-06-12
