Directed by Ismaël Ferroukhi
Origin France
Genres Drama, Comedy, Romance

Réda (Nicolas Cazalé) is a French-Moroccan teenager due to sit for Baccalauréat. When his devout father (played by Mohamed Majd) asks Réda to accompany him on a pilgrimage to Mecca, he reluctantly agrees. However, the father insists that they travel by car. As both embark on a road trip thousands of kilometres away from southern France, the once-icy father-and-son relationship starts to thaw as both gradually come to know each other. Réda speaks only in French to his father, who is seen speaking only Arabic for the majority of the film. Later, when necessary, the father proves that he in fact speaks impeccable French; his choice to speak only Arabic to his son is therefore purposeful.

Chasing the Horizon takes a look at a team's preparation for the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, one of the most grueling off-road racing events in the world. It is known as such because of the extreme conditions which the race is set in, the length of the race, and spectators have even been known to set up booby traps on the course for their own entertainment. The team that the film takes a look at is a rookie trio called Team Horizon. Milo Brown is an ex-con and junkyard owner but is also the team's captain. Jeff Lloyd was once a homeless man who went on to become a millionaire and racecar driver. Toby O'Mara serves as the team chief mechanic and co-driver, but he is also a plumber. The three men come together and form a sort of dysfunctional family to compete in this grand event. The film takes a look at the ups and downs of the crew's experiences in the days that lead up to the actual race and the viewer sees moments of laughter and comedy but also times of sadness.

"I Am Dale Earnhardt" creuse profondément au-delà de la légende pour révéler la figure complexe au cœur de "The Intimidator". Il était une idole pour des millions, mais un méchant pour d'autres ; le héros d'un travailleur, mais aussi un chouchou de Madison Avenue ; un mari, un père et un ami, mais aussi un homme solitaire que peu connaissaient vraiment. Sa mort tragique dans le dernier tour du Daytona 500 2001 a envoyé des ondes de choc à travers le pays et l'a immortalisé comme l'une des plus grandes stars que NASCAR ait jamais connues.
