Director's Statement
‘In The Red’ also documents the current condition of Speedway; a sport that faces an uncertain future and being forgotten as many clubs continue to shut down across the country. As well as presenting the thrilling drama that takes place on and off the track, the film highlights some of the amazing personal stories of Glasgow Tigers fans and volunteers, who never fail to bring an emotional touch to the film.
