Sunday in Hell: Behind the Lens of the Greatest Cycling Film of All Time

The Paris-Roubaix Classic: 273 kilometers of torment across the bone-crunching pav of northern France. In 1976 the celebrated Danish film director, J rgen Leth, embarked on an ambitious project to capture the spirit of this spectacular and cruel one-day race. The resulting film, A Sunday in Hell, has become the most admired cycling documentary of all time, and its revolutionary camera and sound techniques have forever changed the way the sport is viewed on screen. This book observes the creativity of Leth and his collaborators, explores the lives of riders such as unlikely winner Marc Demeyer, and revisits locations which have changed little to this day.
