The Borri brothers wrote the history of Italian motorcycling. Between 1960 and 1979 they won 84 races and five Italian hillclimb championship titles. Thanks to their talent as drivers and mechanics, they earned the esteem and respect of generations of fans. In 2018, now almost 80 years old, they participated in Speed Week in Bonneville, Utah, the world's premier absolute speed competition on wheels. Their dream was to set the speed record in the 50cc motorcycle category, racing on a motorcycle built and modified in their workshop in Italy, and thus also write their name in the history of world motorcycling. The documentary shows that youth does not depend on age, but on the ability to accept challenges and pursue one's dreams.
