SUMMARY

A team of young, brave Palestinian mechanical engineering students succeed in building Gaza’s first Formula racing car despite failing to get crucial components from European suppliers due to the longstanding siege on the territory. Led by the relentless and visionary Ghassan Abu-Orf (PhD in mechanical engineering from University of Manchester), they face numerous seemingly impossible obstacles in their quest to take their invention to England to compete at the Silverstone racing circuit.
