DARE TO DREAM DOCUMENTARY

Perseverance and science to inspire

The biggest threat to our health and quality of life today are lifestyle-related diseases driven by sedentariness, poor diet, and stress. Dare to Dream makes the case that an active lifestyle is an essential part of a long and fulfilling life.

This 57-minute documentary film follows Jack Lowe, champion of the Fit for Life philosophy, and a multigenerational group of amateur cyclists as they embark on a challenging 407-km journey across some of the Tour de France’s most legendary alpine passes.

Experts from Stanford University, the Swiss Olympic Medical Center, the University of California, and the World Health Organization share science-based insights on the physiological mechanisms that have enabled Jack, a lifelong cyclist and mountaineer, to maintain a physiological age of 60 well into his eighties.

The numbers are compelling: embracing an active lifestyle not only significantly lowers the risk of disease, but also enhances the prospects of living a long and healthy life.

The film challenges us to “dare to dream” – to seek adventure, pursue our passions, cultivate friendships, and stay active, at every stage of life.

“Most people want to live a healthy life. The process of making healthier choices throughout your life gets you to that goal.”

— Dr Anne Friedlander, Stanford University
