FILM FESTIVAL
The 2023 BDR film festival returns on November 28, 2023.
Submission deadline is November 5th.
RideBDRTM
This year’s BDR ‘Keep It 100’ Film Festival will take place on GivingTuesday (#GivingTuesday), falling on Tuesday, November 28th, as part of the global generosity movement that empowers individuals and organizations to support their communities.
The festival will be live-streamed at RideBDR.com/100 at 5:00 PM PST/8 PM EST.
Now in its fourth year, the festival celebrates the BDR riding community, showcasing ADV culture’s best attributes: exploration, discovery, adventure, personal growth, camaraderie, and fun.
Every year, BDR invites community members to submit 100-second BDR films, and the most exceptional submissions are showcased during the Live YouTube Broadcast.
In addition to the overall Festival Winner selected by a panel of esteemed ADV-industry judges, the audience has the opportunity to cast their vote for the People’s Choice Award. The film festival also features short BDR-related films from professional filmmakers and a few upcoming route teasers from the BDR team.
The two principal winners and three runners-up will receive generous prize packages from BDR’s industry partners, including REV’IT!, Touratech, Sena, Doubletake Mirrors, WLF Enduro, CruzTools, Moto Camp Nerd, Butler Maps, and more.
Those donating $100 or more on #GivingTuesday by purchasing tickets to the BDR Special Edition ‘Cross Continent’ Ducati DesertX Sweepstakes will not only be entered for a chance to win this special motorcycle, but will also receive a limited edition ‘BDR Cross Continent’ t-shirt as an expression of gratitude from the BDR organization.

Rules/Notes
Entry into the film festival is “at will” and implies no guarantee. While a good faith effort will be made to conduct the film festival as outlined, BDR and it’s partners reserve final say in all matters including but not limited to – judgment of films, dispensing of prize packages, technical/human error and proposed deadlines.
