BEYOND PARALLELS
A 45-minute documentary film
After crossing Canada from north to south in 2021, the adventurers of AKOR expeditions set out on a new challenge: a crossing of the Canadian Far North, from the Yukon to the eastern edge of the country on Baffin Island. A 6,900-kilometre journey by bike, canoe, sailboat and on foot. But just months before departure, Nico, a key member of the team, is sidelined by a serious injury. The long road to his recovery unexpectedly initiates another journey: inspired by AKOR, a group of 12 people living with chronic pain embark on a collective challenge to cover, as a team, the 6,900 kilometres traveled by AKOR's 2024 expedition, at the same time as the adventurers, despite their own physical limitations.
