Max and Kyle are two acrobatic riders. When they are invited to take part in a mysterious downhill race with a $250,000 prize purse, they don’t think twice, only to learn, when it’s too late, that they’ll have to push themselves beyond the limits of their own physical and psychological endurance. They’ll be facing an extreme race for their very survival.

"The script for Ride was written with the idea of blending different narrative approaches. The basic concept was to exploit the typical medium of so-called found footage, in which there’s no outside narrator shaping the story: the entire narrative unfolds by means of films made by the characters themselves. We were eager to show the variety of images that come out of sports footage, usually made by the athletes themselves using action cams, but placing these images inside a solid narrative structure for the genre. […] The risk we took was that of manipulating the plot so that the characters could visually tell the story that we needed. However, we managed to create a narrative framework that would justify this device. We chose to tell the story of two young athletes practicing extreme sports, two characters who fully represent the way today’s generation uses social media, sharing their lives and their athletic feats on practically a live feed. So it’s altogether believable that when the two lead characters get involved in the life-threatening race organized by a mysterious organization, they film every instant of the contest."
