Meet the Middle East's first-ever all-female rally-racing team.

"It’s uncommon to see girls racing anywhere in the world," says Maysoon, captain of the team of women racers determined to pursue their automotive obsession in the male-dominated Palestinian car racing scene. Amidst a tangle of roadblocks and checkpoints, a burgeoning speed-racing scene in the West Bank draws huge crowds of excited spectators despite the ever-present threat of violence.

Brought together by a common desire to live life on their own terms, these five determined women navigate the tricky terrain between their high-octane passion and the political climate of their homeland. Director Amber Fares delves into their driving dreams and domestic dramas, and offers a surprising look into what it takes to go further and faster than anyone thought you could.

"A refreshing stereotype-breaker and a vivid illustration of the diversity of the Palestinian experience." – Indiewire
