Hell on Wheels (Höllentour)
Le Tour de France, the toughest bicycle race of all, celebrated its 100th birthday in 2003. Alongside the astonishing beauty of the French landscape and the colourful spectacle of the race, Academy Award winner Pierre Danquart captures the apprehension, torture and fragility of the cyclists vying for honours and survival. Bringing us remarkably close to Erik Zabel and the T-Mobile team, Hell on Wheels provides a fascinating inner view of the Tour's organisation, history and fanatical crowds.
"I want to know what it takes to win the Tour. In the team. In the body. In the mind." Pepe Danquart
