POLISH TITLE: PYŁ

The movie is a story of the relation between the father and the son, recorded during the 14-day competition of one of the most important and most dangerous rallies in the world, the Dakar rally. However, Dakar is only a context. Everything happens in the backstage: at the bivouac from which Konrad Dąbrowski, a 19-year old competitor starts off and where he finishes every day. Also there, his father, Marek Dąbrowski, a three-time runner up in off-road rallies, waits for him all the time.  For Konrad this is first start in such a big rally. He is the youngest participant in the history of the raid. His father, who is his coach, is terrified by the thought that his son may have an accident. He tries to emotionally prepare the boy in the way that the accident would be avoided, to drive as slowly as possible. The goal is simply – not getting an impressive place, but to pass the rally.  The two-week fight, consisting of the sleep deprivation and many-hour concentration, makes the participants exhausted, thanks to which their true nature is revealed.
