Dust to Glory (2005)
BronWa Pictures

Description

Using 90 cameras in a variety of formats, director Dana Brown captures the giddy danger of the Baja 1000 race with truly visceral force.

In 1967, a few California thrill-seekers had the Eureka spirit to take their homemade race cars for some whooping-up in the wide-open land just a few hours away. Since then, the Baja 1000 has turned into a party-fueled happening that's more akin to Burning Man than the Indy 500. It's billed as the world's longest nonstop race, running point-to-point for 1,000 miles through the Mexican desert from Tijuana to La Paz--pretty much the entire length of Baja.

This movie documents the triumph of the human spirit in the harshest of conditions. Definitely worth seeing, many times.
