Filmmaker Statement

Despite many positive efforts in recent years, there are still so many areas of society (an entire sport in this case) where there’s glaring symptoms of racism and inequality. We hope this film can spark discussion about the work that needs to be done within the world of cycling (and beyond) and honor those that are truly making change happen, day in and day out. The film also underscores the power of the family unit, both at home and at work. As this was our first time co-directing together, we spent many hours between filming sharing stories about family and about the type of work environment we thrive in. Much of that discussion was sparked by Legion. Being around their team and hearing about their mission, we felt moved to share with one another in a deep, meaningful way. We hope the film creates the space for others to do the same.
