Climb into the saddle for A Hell Of A Ride (also known as Shadows of The Past), a whip-cracking romantic Aussie adventure set in the spectacular high-stakes arena of professional bull riding.

The day Steve Kelly (Marcus Pointon) got on a bull called Black Friday at the national championships his life was destined to take a turn for the worse. Bucked, bruised and wheelchair bound he faces a dark existence of doubt and infernal bitterness.

Down but not out, his journey of recovery and dogged determination to revisit his past and conquer his demons is the stuff of legend. The only thing that stands in his way is his rocky relationship with estranged wife Danii (Jordanna Allen) and headstrong daughter Cassie (Katie Kelly).

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Australia’s Darling Downs, also featuring Mark Lee (Gallipoli) and Country music diva Tania Kernaghan, A Hell of A Ride is an uplifting tale of one man’s struggle to regain the reins of his downtrodden career and endeavour to once again ride tall and tilt his hat to the sunset.
