Sylvain and Mathieu are musicians and filmmakers on a mission to make a positive difference in the world. On a pair of old 1970s Royal Enfield motorcycles with recording gear in tow, they're travelling 13,000 km across the Silk Route, embedding themselves in the local cultures, meeting musicians and recording traditional songs performed by children from disadvantaged communities. They're shining a spotlight on social projects happening across the Route's 17 countries and donating the proceeds raised by the sale of the recordings back to the schools. Of course, not everything on the trip goes according to their plan. The old bikes keep things interesting with unexpected events in the middle of nowhere and in extreme conditions.
Take an adrenaline-filled motorcycle adventure, mix in culture, music, and a heap of social goodness and what you get is an epic and heartwarming narrative about the beauty of helping others.
Rental includes access to all five episodes.
Back in Europe, Sylvain and Mathieu integrate a refugees camp in Serbia. The intense experience leads them to record a song in this country and ride towards Slovakia. Once there, a group of young gypsies are waiting for them. The time passes and they get closer to their home.
