When Filipe Leite leaves his adoptive home of Canada, the aspiring journalist sets out on an epic quest to ride from Calgary to his family's home in Brazil — and later beyond — entirely on horseback.
Inspired by Aimé Tschiffely's 1925 equestrian journey, Filipe's eight-year odyssey of over 25,000 kilometres across 12 international borders, sees the young immigrant battle intense heat, drought, speeding transport trucks, nature's wrath and corrupt border guards on his history-making long ride home.
