Plot summary

Against the backdrop of the 1961 Swedish Grand Prix, East German motorcycle racer Ernst Degner flees the Iron Curtain. Returning to the racetrack the following season with Suzuki, the driver wins the world championship and catapults the Japanese industrial giant into global domination of the motorcycle industry. Set where two worlds collide – the colour and freedom of the West contrasts the oppression and threat of Cold War East Germany.

Great take on the iron curtain motorcycle rivalry

I have nothing to do with motorcycling. I think many bikes are way to fast, way too loud and attached too often to reckless drivers.

This documentary about an east-german pro motorcycle racing driver was great, though. The doc offers a thourough glimpse into the crazy, competitive history between the east and west in which the east-german manufacturer "MZ" built - for a time - the fastest two-stroke motorbikes on the planet.

Well done - especially the "anglo"-perspective through just proper motorsport enthusiasm. Underneath it all is a story about a man, who was great at what he did and because of that was forced to leave his country with his family.
