Full Gas

Full Gas is the story of 17-year-old Omer, an exceptional young driver and Israel’s go-karting champion. Omer suffers from a unique form of ADHD, but stays focused as soon as he hits the race track. The film follows Omer and his family over a single but critical year, as he tries to turn his racing hobby into an international racing career. The film was made in the framework of the Growing Pains program, in which Israeli film directors were invited to create documentaries intended for, and focusing on, teenagers. The project encourages the viewing of documentaries through creating films that relate to the lives and issues of teenagers in Israel today.
