Running on the Sun: The Badwater 135

Directed by Mel Stuart

The road to hell is 135 miles long.

Forty runners compete in the most gruelling race on earth, the Badwater. The film documents the trials and tribulations of these athletes as they run 135 miles through Death Valley in July and explores the motivations behind this seemingly masochistic contest. A celebration of the perseverance of the human will beyond the limits of the human body
