Film Description

The Flying Scotsman follows the standard blueprint for a sports film: underdog overcomes obstacles to become a champion - but adds the element of the hero’s mental illness to make an engaging drama in the vein of Chariots of Fire (1981).

Jonny Lee Miller (Trainspotting) plays Graeme Obree, a Scottish cyclist who is seemingly past his prime. He has gone from winning races to running a losing bike shop, but he can’t be called a quitter. When he learns his old rival will race for a record, Graeme decides to get back in the game.
