In 1967 thousands of motorcyclist went on an expansive motorcycle ride, Rodina Rally, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the October Revolution in the USSR. A black and white documentary was created on this tour that crossed 1/6 of the country. The grandson of the film maker managed to find this filmstrip in archives. He then called his friends to make a sequel to his grandfathers film. So almost a half century later an attempt was made to repeated the route of 1967 on a Russian motorcycle called a Ural. Why does the original footage beat the modern picture? Why do we want to live better, but end up with the same as the past? Why do Russian motorcycles and roads go bad? These are a few challenges faced by the travelers from Sakhalin to Saint Petersburg.
