The Ataxian

2015 NR 1h 21m 8.5

Faced with a debilitating, terminal disease, and barely able to walk, one man inspires thousands when he races his bicycle across America in the world's toughest sporting event.

Unable to walk due to the neuromuscular disorder, Friedreich's ataxia (FA), Kyle Bryant and a team of friends attempt the most grueling bicycle race in the world, The Race Across America (RAAM). The feature-length documentary, "The Ataxian," spotlights a man whose will and determination carry him and his teammates across a continent under almost impossible conditions-an act that sparks others to take action in their own lives. Stunning cinematography exposes raw, unfiltered emotions juxtaposed against the most inspiring landscapes across America. With purity and grace, the film examines the life of a man aggressively living every moment in a race against his own mortality.
