What if you were a Hollywood movie star with an obsession for cars and racing? You would probably read every script with even the tiniest link to the subject matter, in the hope that you could tell a great car story of the likes of 'Grand Prix', 'Le Mans' or 'Mad Max'. Then one day you happen to open your garage door and sitting there, right in front of you, was the film you had been searching for. This is what happened to Eric Bana and this time around, the co-star is his very own Ford GT Falcon Coupe - THE BEAST. Eric realised the story was in fact, about him, his first car, a lifetime of ownership and a lifetime of friendship. He set about documenting his own 25 year-long love story. A simple tale of one man's ongoing relationship with his very first car. After years of precious restoration, Eric and his three closest friends, decided to enter the car into one of the most gruelling and dangerous motor races that exists: The Targa Tasmania Rally. This would be a personal Everest for both man and machine, until... on day four of the race, tragedy struck. The man who was hell bent on trying to convey how much he and those around him loved THE BEAST, had just destroyed it.
Eric has now unwillingly cast himself in his own real life drama. We follow him from inside the race car to the surreal world of the red carpet. This compelling true story follows Eric's progression as a car lover, and as a person conflicted by what he has done. The personal and social pressures mount up in the face of re building a car that means so much to him. Along the way Eric seeks guidance and wisdom from not only the inner sanctum of his three life long friends but also Jay Leno, Jeremy Clarkson, and Dr Phil.
