Ayrton Senna da Silva gilt unter Rennsport-Fans als einer der besten Formel-1-Fahrer aller Zeiten. Von 1984 bis zu seinem Unfalltod im Jahr 1994 in Imola fuhr der charismatische Brasilianer in der Königsklasse und errang dabei drei Weltmeistertitel. Asif Kapadia lässt in dieser Dokumentation Sennas Karriere chronologisch Revue passieren, indem er ausschließlich Archivaufnahmen zeigt. Einige seiner Weggefährten kommen aus dem Off zu Wort. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei vor allem auf seinem Verhältnis zum Dauerrivalen Alain Prost, mit dem sich Senna auf und neben der Rennstrecke erbitterte Duelle lieferte.

Die Filmemacher Janet Tobias und Claus Wehlisch begleiten für ihren Dokumentarfilm die Erinnerungsathleten Johannes, Simon, Nelson und Yanjaa. Aus Deutschland, den USA und der Mongolei reisen sie alle zu einer Weltmeisterschaft an, bei der sie um den Titel des Gedächtnisweltmeisters kämpfen. Mithilfe ihrer Vorstellungskraft sind sie in der Lage, sich Unmengen an Daten zu merken. Yanjaa kann sich innerhalb von 5 Minuten über 400 Bilder einprägen, Johannes hingegen behält sich in der gleichen Zeit über 500 Ziffern während sich Nelson innerhalb einer kurzen Zeitspanne an fast 50 Gesichter und die dazugehörigen Namen erinnern kann. Mit 3D-Animationen machen Janet Tobias und Claus Wehlisch die Visualisierungstechniken im Gedächtnis der Teilnehmer sichtbar und ermöglichen dem Zuschauer so einen Einblick in die scheinbar grenzenlose Erinnerungsfähigkeit, die vielleicht jedem von uns möglich sein könnte.

107 years ago, the Moon was destroyed in a massive cataclysm that shattered Earth's former satellite into 81 quintillion tons of orbital debris. However, thanks to super-science, the Earth itself was saved and today no one really thinks much about that century-past disaster. Which is why when teenage Haruka Amami auditions for something called the Idolmaster Project, she THINKS she's trying out to be a singing idol. Instead, Haruka finds herself at a secret school run by the Mondenkind Agency, living with a group of other girls who have also been selected as candidates to pilot an iDOL - an advanced robot specifically designed to intercept falling chunks of moon rock. Except, the people who run the Mondenkind Agency aren't exactly knights in shining armor. And then there's the question of whether the iDOLs are really JUST robots. Because from almost the first moment, Haruka starts to feel emotions resonating from within the iDOL called Imber.
