This film is about the cycling races at the Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro 2016, capturing the atmosphere and race action. It shows how athletes Karen Darke and Hannah Dines of the GB Team felt before, during and after these intense competition days. Their thoughts are mixed with images that show the contrasts between the every day atmosphere of the locals, sun bathing or surfing at Pontal beach, whilst alongside them the paracycling athletes fought for their best during the races. It raises questions of never giving up, of self-belief, and of faith or fate.
This film is a non-profit project, made possible thanks to funding by supporters through the PledgeSport.org and Indiegogo.com crowdfunding platforms. Many thanks to all our supporters who believed in this project and spread a little seed of motivation to never ever give up.
