Beyond the Raging Sea

Extreme athletes Omar Samra and Omar Nour enter the world’s toughest rowing race: the Atlantic Challenge, an unsupported 3,000 mile open-ocean race from the Canary Islands to Antigua, despite neither having experience on open water. The athletes trained for an entire year before embarking on the voyage in a high-tech unsinkable rowboat, which they dedicate to the plight of refugees worldwide for whom unimaginable peril, exposure and even death at sea comes to tens of thousands annually. What they couldn’t prepare for is what happened. (Munro Film Services)
