A documentary that tells the story of the craziest race in the world. In 1977, French motorcyclist Thierry Sabine encountered serious trouble and got lost in the Libyan desert, dying of thirst. When most men cry and look back on their lives, Tieri wants to come back - hold a rally in the Sahara Desert. The 9000 kilometer Paris Dakar Rally was born. This rally became a lighthouse for eccentric adventurers to ride custom vehicles on the terrain, lured by the romance and extreme challenges of the desert. It quickly became a victim of its own rapid success. In 2008, this incredible event came to an end in Africa due to terrorism, sparking controversy and resulting in over 60 deaths. Winners Cyril Neveu, Hubert Auriol, Jean Louis Schlesser, and Ari Vatanen. How the West showcases incredible beauty and scale. Then they lose.
