Same Sun - Cycling through Africa
6.9
The story of Wiebke Lühmann's journey from Freiburg to the Cape of Good Hope. Honest, raw, and close to the inner and outer challenges of a 430-day bicycle trip. Her journey takes her through 22 countries, Sahara storms, the rain season, the Congo Basin, and the deserts of Namibia. What begins as a search for independence becomes an intimate exploration of identity.
