Austria2Australia, Directed by *Dominik Bochis, Andreas Buciuman *****
Two childhood friends cycle 18.000 km - 19 countries. It’s a Herculean route full of hardships, discoveries and challenges, which are powerful and unpredictable - The two Upper Austrian hobby cyclists Andreas and Dominik have a daring plan: They want to ride by bike from Austria to Australia to explore the world - and the crazy thing is: They actually do it.
When they get to Pakistan, they are surrounded by police cars and they have to travel at a snail’s pace. Where are they going? Why is this happening? It turns out they are going to a Pakistani wedding where the guests of the bride and groom a are all policemen. The surprises was nice indeed at the end of this escorting.
Delhi, they hated, but Australia was a turning point for
hatred. The flies and heat got to them and they go their separate ways only to
meet up by the ocean. They both wanted to call it quits before this, but they
stuck it out. An amazing documentary and the best “road” f travel film yet to
be made. Domiinik was struck with knee pain on route, and ended up at a Chinese
hospital to deal with the inflammation. Hurdles kept coming their way, but
their happiness diminished any doubts.
