Canada 2006 | DV 77 min.
Dir. Reginald Harkema

Dan and Linda are two ex-activists in Toronto who live a low-key lifestyle, selling junk online and riding their bicycles. After their pot dealer gets busted, they meet the young revolutionary Susan, forcing Dan and Linda to question their relationship and face their turbulent past. "Monkey Warfare" was well received at the 2006 Toronto International Film Festival, winning the Special Jury Award.

THE TIDES
USA 2007 | HD 8 min.
Dir. Eva Flodstrom
As Emi experiences firsthand, you never know the adventures and inspiration that await you when you leave your front door and embrace the present moment.

BIKECAR
USA 2006 | DV 65 min.
Dir. J.T. Fountain
Travis Parker, Louie Fountain and Scotty Wittlake approached travel differently last winter. Putting snowmobiles and 4x4's to shame, the crew traveled across the great Northwest in a bikecar: a four-person, pedal-powered vehicle that was the vessel of the adventure – part bike, part car. Pulling a trailer with snowboards and gear, the crew pedaled in search of snow for one month.

“Bikecar” is a one-of-a-kind documentary that brings a new perspective to travel, adventure and snowboarding.
