The biopic 'Bartali' will depict the inspiring life of Gino Bartali, a celebrated Italian cyclist and WWII hero. Directed by the award-winning duo E. Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, the film stars Miles Teller as Bartali, who was not only a two-time Tour de France winner but also bravely aided the Italian resistance during the Nazi occupation. Recognized by Yad Vashem for his efforts to rescue Jews, Bartali's legacy as a cycling icon and humanitarian is set to engage audiences, highlighting the intersection of sports and moral courage.
"He wasn't just a cycling legend-he was a true hero who risked his own safety to help those who needed it most. Can't wait for audiences to see the courage and heart behind his journey."
"Although some of the historical claims have come under question, in 2013, Yad Vashem recognized Gino Bartali as Righteous Among the Nations for his rescue activities."
