Changing Gears is a 20 minute short film, showing the journey of 5 young Londoners as they cycle from London to Brighton. Having never met before, and each from different backgrounds and life stories, the film is a look at the transformative potential of the bicycle in bringing people together and breaking down barriers. On show is an insight into the sense of freedom and independence young people gain from a bicycle in a city, the worries and problems they face growing up there, and how they react to new geographies outside London.
This film was made by Bruna Martini, Ross Fairgrieve, Jo Robinson and Damien Bouvier , along with Julian Sayarer, author of Life Cycles, who is currently riding the Living Wage Tour.
