About this film
Part of the America – Patagonia to Alaska series, this 18-minute episode follows a time-pressured stage of a motorcycle trip around the world. In São Paulo, the federal police will not extend Mota’s visa, leaving him two days to exit Brazil before it expires. At the same time, preparations for Patagonia remain unfinished, with packing still to be done. The story brings together the practical demands of travel and the question of how much riding can fit into a tight departure window.
The journey
From São Paulo, Mota plans to head toward the border with Argentina. His intended route includes a 700-kilometre detour to Rio do Rastro, described as a route Brazilian riders recommend. The ride unfolds in persistent rain, which comes down for most of the day. The episode’s focus is the push to leave Brazil while making room for a notable stretch of riding, with Patagonia preparations still occupying attention along the way.
