Driven by innovation - a documentary about Solar Team Twente

In this documentary made by Sander Geerdink for Solar Team Twente, the team takes you along on their preparations for their ultimate goal: participating in the Sasol Solar Challenge in South Africa with their innovative solar car RED XI. The tests at Technology Base and Twente Airport were an important part of the preparations.

After almost a year of preparation, the team set off with the ambition to drive more than 4,200 kilometres across South Africa during this eight-day challenge. A group of almost 40 students committed themselves fully to this unique and demanding adventure.

To capture their story, Sander and his team had to be in the right place at the right time – and they were. The result is an inspiring and revealing picture of what it takes to be part of a team like Solar Team Twente, and what it means to pursue a dream against all odds.
