Coureur follows the struggles, glory and dreams of a young 'flandrien' cyclist who will do whatever it takes to succeed, no matter the consequences for himself and those around him. Felix Vereecke grows up as an insider at his father's veteran league cycling races, an outlandish milieu with no shortage of alcohol, violence, and prohibited substances. He wants to become a pro no matter what, like his father Mathieu, who seeks to fulfil his own failed dreams of cycling glory. As an adult, Felix turns out to be incredibly gifted. When he becomes national junior champion, he follows his own path towards the promised land of youth cycling: Italy. The merciless competition and his feeble health, however, threaten to become his downfall. (Cinemax)

This is not the Belgians’ best film. The premise is clear – cycling – but the people in this sport just confirm that it’s the least attractive discipline for watching. It seems dominated by a band of crooks, which doesn’t endear this film to its audience, quite the opposite.
