In the heart of car-dominated Los Angeles, a group of students set out on a journey to discover what it takes to create bike-friendly cities resulting in an inspiring call to action.
Bicycle Revolution was co-directed by Dr. Paul Steinberg of Harvey Mudd College and Kevin Foxe (whose credits include the original Blair Witch Project), and featuring new music from the Los Angeles Indie rock scene, the film documents the experience of 15 students in a one-of-a-kind college course that takes place entirely on bicycles. Together the students explore a question on every young person's mind these days: Is meaningful social change possible? In their search for answers, they meet with mayors, city council members, community activists and city staff who are on the front lines of struggles to make sustainability a reality.
This project is being funded through the Oklahoma Department of Libraries with funds from the Library Services Technology Act (LSTA), a Federal source of library funding provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
