Gaza Sunbirds

Four members of a team stand confidently with a bicycle in an urban street setting at dusk. Two of them wearing prosthetic legs, all dressed in team black shirts and three wearign helmets, illuminated by dramatic lighting.

When a young amputee cyclist and his underdog team of bike racers chase their dream of representing Palestine on the world stage, their six-year mission becomes a matter of life or death as bombs descend on Gaza.
