Synopsis
Step back into the thrilling 1970s as we follow daredevil stuntman Ken Carter in “The Stunt Driver.” Known as “The Mad Canadian,” Carter is on a mission to achieve the unthinkable: launching a rocket car off a towering 90-foot-high ramp to leap across the St. Lawrence River. This seemingly limitless stunt will take him from Canada to the United States, covering more than a mile in a heart-pounding moment of audacity.
The film captures Carter’s determination and the sheer chaos of preparing for a feat that both excites and terrifies. As he navigates a series of outlandish challenges, audiences will witness not just the trials of a stuntman, but also the ambition of a man who dares to dream big. With his eyes set on making history, Carter’s preparations intertwine with a vivid backdrop of ‘70s culture and the adrenaline-fueled world of stunt driving.
