      daniel n What an amazing story of three avid runners facing many physical and mental adversities while accomplishing their mission of crossing the spectacular yet hostile Sahara. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautifully shot. Original score and music that sticks with you. Story of human endurance, friendship, challenging circumstances and the Saharan peoples. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This film was great! Watching the runners overcome the hardships they experienced was really inspiring, and their spirit and determination was very clear throughout the film. The scenery was beautiful, and the film gives you a chance to see a number of different landscapes in Africa. The music in the film is also great, and it made me want to learn more about these kinds of tests of endurance and what it takes to be able to finish them. I would definitely recommend this film! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Belle aventure de course pour traverser le Sahara, avec le canadien Ray Zahab. Toute un leçon de dépassement. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member It made me want to huff and puff thru my minuscule running program with renewed vigor. 111 days of running across the Sahara...! The very thought has me tired and reaching for a cold 'un :-) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member These guys are crazy, but the documentary is great. Really shows the strain on the bodies and emotions of everyone involved, plus amazing footage of the African Sahara. Grade: A Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
