Brilliantly filmed documentary movie that exposes the longing for recognition of one's love. Is love truly unconditional? This movie sharply displays the human desires turning into the dark sides of life. The director will hurl you through the high and lows of a teenager's desperate search to find his true identity. Epic and must see.

The film's visual style is striking, immersing the audience in the relentless rhythm of training and competition, with close-up shots that capture the physical strain and intense emotions Felix endures. Felix's relationship with his father, a former cyclist pushing him to succeed at any cost, adds an emotional depth that illustrates the complex dynamics of family expectations and personal ambition.

While Coureur doesn't hold back in its portrayal of the dark side of professional cycling, it also highlights the resilience and vulnerability of its protagonist. It's a powerful and haunting narrative that stays with you, shedding light on a world rarely seen in such a raw and personal way.
