Resounding success at the official premiere of “Against Gravity,” the documentary revealing the true story of Adam Raga
Barcelona, December 1, 2025 – Barcelona hosted the official premiere of “Against Gravity” last Thursday, November 27. The new documentary, created and produced by 28-year-old Marc Farrerons, marks his first cinematic work dedicated to his childhood idol: trial rider Adam Raga, six-time World Champion.
The event brought together personalities from the world of sports and culture, specialized press, and fans of the rider, filling the venue completely in an evening marked by emotion, admiration, and recognition of an exceptional sporting career.
A life dedicated to trial
“Against Gravity” traces over 25 years of Adam Raga’s professional career:
- His beginnings at just three years old
- Six world titles and over 300 podium finishes
- Physical and mental challenges
- His historic rivalry with Toni Bou
The documentary offers a never-before-seen perspective on Raga’s journey, from his first steps on a bike at the age of three to becoming a six-time trial world champion and one of the most iconic athletes in the sport. The film not only showcases his victories and challenges but also highlights the man behind the rider: his values, effort, perseverance, and the influence of his family on his career.
Among the documentary’s highlights are footage of his early training sessions, major victories, difficult moments such as injuries, his rivalry with Toni Bou, and his inspiration and learning experiences with Jordi Tarrés, offering exclusive interviews and scenes never seen before.
A dream that began in 2010
During the premiere, Marc Farrerons shared the personal story that inspired the project:
“In 2010, my parents took me to the Barcelona Indoor Trial for the first time, where I got my first photo with Adam, my childhood idol. Presenting his documentary fifteen years later is a dream come true.”
His connection with Raga and professional evolution have allowed him to craft an intimate and close narrative about one of the most influential figures in trial worldwide.
“Being able to create this documentary, and especially present it alongside him in the city where we first met, is more than a professional project: it is the closing of a circle.”
“Against Gravity” is not only a documentary about Adam Raga. It is also a celebration of what happens when passion, admiration, and hard work come together. It serves as a reminder that dreams, when pursued with heart, can become real, meaningful, and extraordinary.
“Presenting this work alongside him is, without a doubt, one of the most emotional moments of my life. I hope this documentary inspires others to pursue what, though it may seem unattainable, is always worth striving for.”
Emotion at the premiere
During the event, Adam Raga emphasized the documentary’s main message:
“Fighting until the end is always worth it. I hope this story inspires those chasing a dream. Seeing my life reflected on screen has been an intense experience. Remembering the difficult moments, victories, doubts, and injuries—all of it shaped who I am today. Having this documentary created by Marc, someone who admired me as a child and is now a great professional and friend, makes it even more special.”
“I am moved to see how my journey can inspire and motivate others. Presenting this documentary together has been a great honor and joy.”
The documentary is conceived as an inspiring experience not only for trial or motorsport fans but for anyone interested in stories of perseverance and personal growth. With over 25 years of professional experience and more than 90 Grand Prix victories, Raga demonstrates that dedication and effort are the foundations of success.
