Documentary Synopsis: A Journey of Endurance & Discovery
Nine ultra-runners embark on the adventure of a lifetime, traversing Romania’s longest trail, Via Transilvanica. Over 1,400 km and 30,000 meters of elevation in just 25 days, they battle exhaustion, harsh weather, wild terrain, and their own limits. From elite athletes to everyday heroes, each runner has a powerful story - of resilience, transformation, and pursuing something greater than themselves.
Directed by Mircea Gherase & Lucian Mircu, this award-winning documentary captures the raw beauty of Romania and the spirit of human perseverance. More than just a race, The Run of Your Life is a testament to courage, pain, humor, and the unbreakable will to push forward.
