Year after year hundreds of thousands of fans line the route of the Tour de France, cheering on their heroes and willing them to victory, while millions of viewers worldwide tune in on their televisions. Academy Award-winning director Pepe Danquart, fascinated by the spectacle of the three week race, chose to focus on the courage, the pain and the fear of the riders of the Tour. Training his lens on German superstar sprinter Eric Zabel and his loyal domestique Rolf Aldag, Danquart captures the thrill of the race and the teamwork behind the stars of the peleton. He also shines light on the Tour's supporting cast - the director sportifs, masseurs, and, of course, the wildly enthusiastic fans. Reveling in the stunning landscape - from the Alps to the Pyrenees to the Massif Central to Paris - and with a nice dollop of Le Tour's history, HELL ON WHEELS transcends the sport it celebrates to reveal an astonishing human endeavor.

In collaboration with a Swiss railway worker and a Swiss secret service man, Italian partisans destroyed 64 Tons of explosives in a coup on April 21, 1945 and thus protected the Simplon Tunnel, the connection to Italy, from possible destruction by German army units. In the field of tension between archive material, personal experience and oral tradition, Werner Schweizer conveys a vividly complex picture of this action and its background in an interplay of knotting and unraveling. Some that seem a bit too operetta-like "action" scenes emphasize the quality of documentary sequences even more clearly.
