Two Egyptian extreme athletes, Omar Samra and Omar Nour, enter the world's toughest rowing race: the Atlantic Challenge, an unsupported 3,000 mile open-ocean race from the Canary Islands to Antigua, despite neither having experience on open water. The athletes trained for an entire year before embarking on the voyage in a high-tech unsinkable rowboat, which they dedicate to the plight of refuges worldwide for whom unimaginable peril, exposure and even death at sea comes to tens of thousands annually. What they couldn't prepare for is what actually happened.

Adventure of Global Relevance

April 28, 2024
Two brave men undertake a journey to cross the ocean in a row boat. What seems like an impossible task is taken on by these two adventurers. This gripping film delivers a combination punch to the jaw that sends you reeling and rebounding to land in what is one of the most important social, societal, and moral issues of our day.

Gripping storytelling

April 25, 2024
I saw a screening of this documentary at a film festival and was absolutely on the edge of my seat. I think the filmmakers did a great job of working with the limited materials they had--factors revealed in the film--an excellent editing.
