剧情介绍
Documentary telling the story of the world's craziest race.
In 1977, French motorcyclist Thierry Sabine was in serious trouble, lost in the Libyan desert and dying from thirst. Whilst most men would weep and think back over their lives, Thierry thought about coming back - to do a rally across the Sahara Desert. The 9,000km Paris-Dakar rally was born.
The rally became a beacon for eccentric adventurers battling the terrain in customised vehicles, seduced by the romance of the desert and the extreme challenge. It soon became a victim of its own rapid success. Caught up in controversy and with over 60 deaths, in 2008 this incredible event was brought to an end in Africa by terrorism.
Featuring winners Cyril Neveu, Hubert Auriol, Jean-Louis Schlesser, Ari Vatanen, Stephane Peterhansel, Martine de Cortanze, former participant Sir Mark Thatcher and many more, this is the story of the biggest motorsport event the world has ever seen and one of the greatest challenges of human endeavour ever conceived, told by those who took part.
How the west took on a landscape of incredible beauty and scale. And lost.
了解了一下达喀尔拉力赛的前世今生，能够理解运动员们那种追求精神愉悦的境界，基本上是跟那些登山运动员差不多，应该是所有的玩极限运动的人都追求的一种人生，确实令人向往，可惜的是随着各种变化，这样的运动赛事很难继续了
该拍个续集了。
达喀尔拉力赛，被称为最严酷和最富有冒险精神的赛车运动，纪录片，用七八十年代的影像，讲了达喀尔拉力赛的由来，前几届比赛的实况。达喀尔拉力赛起源是一次事故。1977 年，创始人法国摩托车赛车手沙宾（Sabine）参加拉力赛，在沙漠迷路，被困三天三夜只能靠吮吸石子保持口腔的湿润，他开始审视沙漠中的人类生理极限以及精神极限，他想将这段人生经历分享出去，所以获救后他开始组织沙漠拉力赛，让尽可能多的人领略沙漠赛车的魅力，这就是“达喀尔拉力赛”。从1978年开始，每年都有人伤亡魂归沙海，但这些却不能阻止人们为达喀尔疯狂。纪录片记录了，1前几届赛手，有没毕业的学生、空姐，采访了他们当年追求精神享受的愉悦回忆。2英国首相撒切尔儿子马克，在撒哈拉沙漠中失踪了6天。3创始人协助比赛坠机事故的影像。
看到达喀尔就想到徐浪。非洲失去这项赛事真是可惜，要不是拉力赛，谁会知道达喀尔在什么地方。。
感谢水山
又看到了七八十年代的西欧影像，创立于那个年代的巴黎达喀尔拉力赛，从一开始就带着浪漫奔放的气息；那位第一届参赛的空姐，讲述她工作时飞南非，因为从高空俯瞰撒哈拉沙漠，被沙漠的壮美吸引时的神情给我印象很深：她被撒哈拉沙漠击中了，我被这段讲述击中了
时间有点短，没看够呢。
