Released in 2010, Racing Around the World Alone is a documentary film directed by Benjamin Rouse, running about 52 minutes.

What it’s about. The story of the 2008/2009 Vendée Globe race. 30 skippers embark on a quest to be the fastest to sail 27000 miles around the world, non stop, without assistance and alone on 60 foot sailboats. This is one of the most extreme challenges a human being can face. The sailors are alone at sea for months and physical and emotional strength are essential. Growlers (Icebergs), sea mammals, and massive waves are a constant danger. On any day the forces of nature can bring an end to the best sailor's well made plans. They harness the wind, hope for safe passage over the sea and push hard to win. They are a testament to the audacity of the human spirit.

Who’s in it. Racing Around the World Alone stars David Kinsman as Narrator and Boissieres Arnaud as Team Akena.
