The Isle of Man will be the first to screen the new film about the Dunlop racing dynasty.

ROAD will be screened exclusively during the TT fortnight at the Broadway Cinema ahead of its UK premiere on June 11th.

Narrated by Liam Neeson it tells the story of the Dunlops Robert and Joey and Robert's son's William and Michael who are two of the world's leading road racers today.

The family has dominated road racing for over 30 years - with the family united by both success and tragedy.
