Christoph Strasser and his crew’s story from their former dream to legendary records at the “Race Across America”. Detailed, unadorned and as authentic as possible, a portrait of the athlete and human being on his story through a lifelong dream come true illustrating once again that, in addition to years of training and persistent will, another factor is decisive: the team. The work is always close to the action, shows never-before-seen, almost intimate insights and combines the highs and lows of the world’s longest and toughest non-stop cycling race in a kaleidoscope of setbacks, euphoria and, above all, a lot of perseverance.
