A documentary film that focuses on the Israeli long-distance runner Ayele Seteng (AKA Haile Satayin), the oldest marathon runner in the 2008 Summer Olympic in Beijing, and his efforts to compete in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. A long distance runner since he was a young boy in Ethiopia, Satayin became a marathon runner only after immigrating to Israel in the early 1990s. Now, at his 50s, he has to keep on running. We follow him as he practices in Ethiopia, far away from his wife and eight children and witness moments of victory and defeat, as he competes in marathons around the world - from Berlin, Germany to Tiberias, Israel.
