Hey All,

You can also buy tickets to the festival on that page -- prices are on a sliding scale.  (We do not profit from the festival in any way, but we do like the festival's organizer and creator, Brendt Barbur.)

The Feature Film: Together We Cycle
Premier: May 14 at 6:00pm ET
Available to stream: May 14 - 31
Directed by Gertjan Hulster + Arne Gielen

Select short films curated by BFF preceding the feature length presentation.

Summary: TOGETHER WE CYCLE investigates the critical events that led to the revival of the Dutch cycling culture. In the 1970s the bicycle was over; and the future belonged to the car.

Then Dutch society took a different turn. Against all odds people kept on cycling. The answer to the question why this happened in the Netherlands is not straight forward. In Together We Cycle, key players tell the story of the bumpy road which led to the current state, where cycling is an obvious choice for most citizens.

The subcultures of cycling have shared equal billing with the most exciting innovators in music, art, design and film.

This festival is a celebration of way a life––not just entertainment.
