Calling it “the most pure sporting event” he had experienced, he said riders competed “for the love of the race”, and the film aimed to help audiences understand the feeling of freedom competitors experience on the Mountain Course.
The production has embedded itself within the TT paddock, operating from a dedicated race team set-up among real competitors.
Carolin said authenticity had been central to the project from the outset, with the crew determined to portray both the races and the island accurately while ensuring they did not interfere with competitors.
He added that race fans should simply carry on as normal if they crossed paths with filming.
