Rally – From Paris to the Pyramids combines the excitement of high-speed racing with inventive, heart-warming storytelling.
The film is directed by celebrated Norwegian filmmaker Rasmus A. Sivertsen (Captain Sabertooth and the Countess of Grel, Captain Sabertooth and the Magic Diamond, Three Robbers and a Lion, In the Forest of Huckybucky) and the screenplay is written by internationally acclaimed writer Rob Sprackling (Gnomeo & Juliet, Disney’s The Queen’s Corgi, Heidi – Rescue of the Lynx) in collaboration with Karsten Fullu.
This action-packed adventure for family audiences follows Reodor Felgen, a brilliant but eccentric inventor, and his two unlikely friends—Solan, a daring magpie, and Ludvig, a timid hedgehog—as they attempt to redeem themselves by competing in the legendary Paris-to-the-Pyramids rally. Equipped with their extraordinary racecar, Il Tempo Gigante, the trio embarks on a high-stakes journey through bustling Paris, the perilous Italian Alps, and the scorching Egyptian desert. With their home, friendship, and lives on the line, they must prove that ingenuity and determination can conquer any challenge.
Inspired by the amazing universe of Norwegian creator Kjell Aukrust and the iconic Il Tempo Gigante, one of the most beloved cars in Norway’s automotive culture, Rally – From Paris to the Pyramids is set to honor and introduce Aukrust’s legacy to a new generation.
Director Rasmus A. Sivertsen explains:
Kjell Aukrust loved fast cars and bold journeys. This film captures that spirit with unforgettable characters and a race like no other.
