Wonderful losers - A different world

"Carriers of water bottles, sacrificial lambs destined to lead the way to put the champion in the wake and to interpret the so-called "team game"."

Eight years of work in which he had to face sometimes prohibitive conditions. The Lithuanian Arunas Matelis has in fact chosen an undertaking that is anything but simple: to compete with a sport that requires a spirit of sacrifice and dedication to the cause like no other.

The point of view chosen by Matelis is that of those who constitute the backbone of the sport itself: the team members. Always behind the group, without the right to a personal victory. These wonderful underdogs are the true warriors of professional cycling.

The thing that emerges most in this film is the will of people, which is the strongest means to move forward despite everything that happens to us, the strength of being able to overcome every difficulty with our heads held high, believing in ourselves.
