Anthill Films' Long Live Chainsaw Now Available to Watch Free

Anthill Films released Long Live Chainsaw in December of last year, raising over $100,000 for the Stevie Smith Legacy Foundation with premiere events and paid digital downloads.

Now, to celebrate the return of downhill racing to Mont-Sainte-Anne, Anthill Films has released the documentary that profiles the life of Stevie Smith FREE on Red Bull TV.


bigquotesWe’d like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you that has streamed, downloaded or watched the film at tour events so far; we’re eternally grateful for the support and know that Stevie would be beyond stoked. The Stevie Smith Legacy Foundation will continue to use the funds to inspire and support the next generation of elite Canadian gravity riders.

The movie was only made possible by a global, collaborative effort from Stevie’s family, friends, fellow athletes, and brands—to every filmmaker and photographer that ever worked with him. We are so thankful to have the opportunity to work with so many talented people to help share Stevie’s story with the world.—Anthill Films


You can still donate to the foundation here.

bigquotesI was so excited to have the opportunity to share Steve’s story… and honoured that Anthill wanted to do it. Seeing his (our) life on the “big screen” was surreal…and very emotional!—Tiana Smith, Stevie’s Mom

 Ya it’s free ….but you should buy it !!! …why cause portions of the sale go to Stevie’s dream , getting kids on bikes .

You watched Finn today ….buy this movie and you could be helping the next Canadian kid become Stevie or Finn !!

 Also, the platform it's on (at least the one I chose) has a download feature so when you buy it you can download the full feature in original rez and always have it with you. A bit like how products were in the old days. You can actually own it. Unlike everything else these days that is streamed and legit has systems in place to stop people from recording the screen.

Stevie lives on my external hard drive now. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Internet or not. I can watch this amazing feature.

 If you can, support the movie by buying it. If you can't buy it, support it by watching, this amazing story of one of MTB's most beloved riders. Support it by living like Stevie, and inspire the next generation of little rippers. Beware there will be ninjas cutting onions, and that's OK. Stevie's legacy is alive and strong, particularly here on the island. We miss you!

 I bought it and i would advise ypu to do so as well. Stevie touched me deeply in ways no other humans do. His mum is also absolutely dedicated, you can't get better then this with what their family got. This is pure love, free or not buy the movie and carry the torch.

 My eyes are fully dehydrated. I have the red Chainsaw t-shirt somewhere. I didn't wear it that much cuz it had a euro-neck, but I will again.
