This documentary, part of GĂ©rard Courant's 'Carnets filmĂ©s,' dives into the atmosphere of a lesser-known cycling eventâthe departure of the second stage of the Tour de lâAin in 2017. Filmed in AmbĂ©rieu-en-Bugey, it captures the hustle and bustle of the departure village, showcasing around a hundred professional runners from various corners of the globe. The tone is quite intimate, almost voyeuristic, as it immerses you in the pre-race excitement and the unique cultural backdrop of the region. Pacing is relaxed, allowing viewers to soak in the scenery and the palpable energy. Thereâs a certain charm in the way he frames the cyclists, making the mundane feel significant, almost poetic in its simplicity. The absence of a traditional narrative feels refreshing here.
