The Eddy Merkx Story
The story of the rider they called
The Cannibal, who won everything there was to win.The first film, made with Merckx
s full support and input, comprehensively covers his phenomenal career. With a revealing interview throughout, plus fabulous race footage and rare archive film, Merckx tells about his formative years; growing up above a small grocers shop in Brussels, before standing supreme in the peloton from the mid 1960s to the late 1970`s. Merckx gave and demanded total commitment and lived, as the Irish cycling legend Sean Kelly did after him, utterly devoted to the sport. Enjoy in this wonderful film, watching a man of such incredible strength, spirit and self-belief, that when united with tremendous athletic prowess and unbridled ambition, produced a set of results in the sport, that even today, are almost unbelievable.main film will be proceeded by a number of short films
