Synopsis
They are seekers, madmen, and angels hell-bent on riding across America on a
bicycle in less than ten days. But what begins as the adventure of a
lifetime is transformed in an instant when tragedy strikes the race. These
voyagers discover what is truly at stake as they pedal on, praying for the
deliverance only the finish line can bring. By journey's end, some are saved
, others are lost, but all learn that the fuel that takes a soul toward its
own true destiny is desire.
About the Race
The Race Across America is an epic, 3000-mile bicycle race from the Pacific
to the Atlantic. First held in 1982, RAAM is considered the most challenging
sporting event in the world. Top riders finish in under 10 days, riding
over 300 miles per day and sleeping only a few hours per night. Amid the
sleepless grind, riders must endure the searing heat of the Mojave Desert,
the agonizing climbs and descents of the Rockies, the driving winds of the
Great Plains, and the twisting switchbacks of the Appalachians before the
final sprint to the finish line in Atlantic City. With little prize money at
stake, the fundamental goal of the race is simply to finish, a challenge
half of all riders fail to meet.
About the Production
Filmmaker Stephen Auerbach and his crew worked around the clock to capture
the highs and lows of the Race Across America. With 18 cameras in the field,
the team found innovative ways to document this massive event. To uncover
the inner workings of the race, embedded camera operators traveled inside
the riders’ crew vehicles, gaining unprecedented access to the cyclists and
their teams. Their footage captured emotional and physical breakdowns, late
-night strategy sessions, and great moments of personal triumph, all in
intimate detail. Auerbach then took on the enormous task of editing hundreds
of hours of material into a powerful, inspiring look inside the most
difficult race on Earth. | t****u
