Motodrom | A Short Film by Jörg Wagner is a 9-minute film about people racing motorcycles and cars around the walls of a circular tower. Shot in black and white and lacking dialog, this film depicts stunt riding through a mesmerizing and artistic lens. It's incredible how these talented guys can defy gravity as they speed around and around. There's a crowd gathered around the top of the tower, peering in and gasping in fear for the riders' safety at times. I would love to see this in person someday.
