TICKET PROCEEDS BENEFIT BIKE JEFFCO
We’re really excited to be part of sharing a film that has the potential to change how cyclists are perceived. We want to share the joy of biking, and showcase how we can use our abilities to arrive at better solutions to bigger issues.
The Engine Inside
The Engine Inside—a new feature-length documentary from Anthill Films—tells the
stories of six everyday people from all over the globe who reveal the unique power of
the bicycle to change lives and build a better world.
Through their stories, the film uncovers the often-overlooked potential of this 200-year-old machine, exploring its impact on a wide range of global issues such as physical and mental health, socioeconomic inequality and climate change.
By shining a light on people who have embraced cycling as a way to overcome daunting personal and systemic challenges, The Engine Inside ultimately asks viewers to reconsider their own perspective. Is there a transformative power within us all that can be unlocked through the simple act of riding a bike?
Shimano, Pon.Bike and PeopleForBikes present an Anthill Films production, narrated by the voice of cycling, Phil Liggett. Featuring Jay Bearhead, Nouran Salah, RRDBlocks, Janice Tower, Megan Hottman and Kwabena Danso, with Danny MacAskill
and Robert Gesink.
