Bliadhna Kerry/Kerry's Year

Documentary following mountain biker Kerry MacPhee, in the lead up to the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

Tha Kerry Nic a' Phì aig cridhe sàr-sgeulachd soirbheachais ann an spòrs air Ghàidhealtachd - nighean à Uibhist a Deas a thug a miann agus a comas ann an spòrs gu ìre phroifeiseanta, agus i a-nis na lùth-chleasaiche làn-ùine.

Dh'ionnsaich i gu luath na duilgheadasan a tha a' tighinn an cois beatha sàr-chleasaiche - ach cha do chaill i riamh sgeul air a' cheann-uidhe a bha fa-near dhi - a' dùthaich a' riochdachadh ann am farpais eadar-nàiseanta. Thairis air bliadhna, tha a' phrògram seo a' leantail spàirn is saothair Kerry agus i a' deasachadh airson Geamaichean a'Cho-Fhlaitheis ann an 2014. Tha i a' strì le a h-uile dìcheall feuch am faigh i cothrom feuchainn airson Alba.

Kerry MacPhee is one of Gaeldom's great sporting success stories - the girl from South Uist who turned her passion and natural ability for sport into her profession by becoming a full time athlete. She has experienced the ups and downs of life as an elite athlete but throughout has had one goal in sight - to compete for her country.

Over the course of a year, this documentary follows Kerry's gruelling schedule in the lead up to the 2014 Commonwealth Games as she strains every sinew to race for Scotland.
