superstition mountain Superstition Mountain - Touring Autumn 09

The Gunwallow brothers are in trouble. Slim's scrapyard has gone belly-up. Dwayne owes money to some bad people. Mark's in love with dodgy Tina from down the pub. And their dad's just popped his clogs and left them on the brink of bankruptcy.

But there's one last glimmer of hope... a legendary gold mine lost somewhere in the depths of the Arizona desert. Only trouble is, no one who's ever found Superstition Mountain has lived to tell the tale...

Blending the spirit of a Hollywood blockbuster with epic music, innovative film and powerful performances from three real Cornish brothers, Superstition Mountain is a dark comedy adventure exploring the intimate bonds and savage divides of brotherly love.

Three brothers... One last chance... No hope in hell!
