As a cyclist and a citizen of the world, this film will move you. It may even move you to consider joining a group of Team Alex and friends on the Ride For The Living 2026.

In January 1945, after 2 years as prisoner in a death camp, 10-year old Holocaust survivor Marcel : embarked on a treacherous 60-mile journey by foot from Auschwitz-Birkenau through an active war zone to Krakow, Poland. A child's desperate search for any surviving family members. A journey from Darkness to Light. In 2019, 250 cyclists from 12 different countries (including other Holocaust survivors) traveled to Auschwitz-Birkenau and re-traced 84-year old Marcel's liberation path as a collective act of empathy called "Ride for the Living." Marcel's dehumanizing Holocaust experience and the empathy demonstrated during "Ride for the Living" compel us to reflect on Humankind's equally treacherous journey between the two extremes of our nature: Dehuma is nization to Empathy. Darkness to Light. Igniting the conversation: In 2023, can the Light prevail?

The film is just under two hours and the producers, Lisa and Tim Efress will be there to give a talkback following the screening.
