Synopsis:
Long Synopsis
What may appear as a documentary about adventure travel in some of the worlds harshest countries quickly moves way to a story about friendship. Sahara the truth begins in the peaceful town of peterborough in the UK as 2 ordinary people set of with a head full of dreams, fears and hope on a journey that will push them both to the brink. A simple idea instilled from childhood and the night time stories of his farther Rex Pearson, now a musician has always wanted to turn these stories into a reality. A lot has changed since the 1970s when his father had initially carried out the trip

Rex's father had always told stories about the majesty and beauty of the Sahara desert, The beauty of the stars at night and the mysterious people who call this place their home. He nearly died in the crossing in the 1970s and ever since he heard the stories he always wanted to discover what he had gone through. What is it really like to try something like this for yourself does it really need a full production crew and support vehicles along with buckets of funding. Is that really a truthful representation of the early explorers efforts to these countries. Whats the Truth behind crossing the Sahara on nothing but a shoe string budget that anyone can afford. This year the time was right to make the crossing. Armed with little more than some old vehicles, a tiny budget and a head full of dreams join the duo as they attempt a crossing of the western Sahara

A documentary following 2 ordinary people embarking on an adventure that quickly turns into an extraordinary journey for their friendship!

The Documentary series Sahara 'The Truth' follows Musician Rex Pearson And Giovanni Chimento on an adventure of a lifetime that will push themselves and their friendship to breaking point.
