Film Synopsis:
Mandy and Ryan have given up their corporate jobs and their traditional houses to "bike-pack" thousands of miles around the USA, looking around as they look within. Their journey and their film answers the question that they and many others are asking: Is it possible for all of us to live in a sustainable way? After circling the country, and talking with over 20,000 people they have found that not only is it possible but its already underway...
Reviews:
"This is one of my favorite movies ever. It touched my heart, my soul, and moved me to tears, laughter... and action." Mariah Miller, Feedback Reviewer
"This is a magnificently subversive film. If you're 100% sure you've got all you want right now... don't watch it!" Bill McKibben, 350.org Founder / Author
"I think the power of this story is that 'odd' behavior is often what 'normal' people dream of doing. The 'oddballs' are the brave few who actually do it." Jonathan Eskenas, VP of Development, Dick Clark Productions
"Totally original! These two brave individuals take us-by bicycle-on a tour of alternative communities with an emphasis on sustainability. Candidly, they also reveal the trials, tribulations and joys in creating sustainable relationships. Thoroughly a delight to see!"
Nina Loeffel, Aldo Leopold's Granddaughter
"You know how people always ask 'But what can I do?' Here's the answer." Liberty M. Willms, Participant in a Test Screening
