FIGHTING FOR A DREAM: ABSA CAPE EPIC 2024

The Absa Cape Epic is often remembered for the final standings.

This film tells the story of everything that happened before them.

For eight days, I lived alongside the BUFF® Megamo Team, documenting the race from inside the camp. The victories, the setbacks, the long transfers, the conversations, the pressure, and the moments that never appear in the race highlights.

It became a historic week for the team. Hans Becking and Wout Alleman wore the leader's jersey for the first time in the team's history, won two stages, and finished third overall. José Dias and Enrique Morcillo completed the race in seventh after eight demanding days in South Africa.

More than the results, this documentary is about the people who made that week possible and the atmosphere that turned a race into something the entire team will remember for years.
