McLaglen and starring Brooke Shields, Lambert Wilson, Horst Buchholz and John Rhys-Davies. The original music score was composed by Ennio Morricone.In 1927, R.J. Gordon develops a new racing vehicle to compete in the "Trans-African Auto Race", but dies in a practice run before he can participate. To save her father's dream and win the prize money, Gordon's daughter, Dale (Shields) disguises herself as a man and takes the place of her father in the race through the Sahara Desert. However, while taking a short-cut, she becomes embroiled in a tribal war between two Bedouin factions, where she catches the eyes of one of its leaders, Sheikh Jafar (Wilson).

Tomboyish Name: Dale takes advantage that her name isn't particularly girly, so she doesn't need to change her name when passing as a man.
