About Bicycle Film Festival and the Films They’ve Curated for This Special Evening

Bicycle Film Festival (BFF) is coming to Marin County. BFF has an incredible history. It began in New York City in 2001 by Brendt Barbur after being hit by a bus while riding a bicycle. He turned his negative experience into a positive one. BFF has been celebrating bicycles through art, film and music around world in over 100 cities to an audience of one million people.

BFF Marin County presents an international selection of short films celebrating the bicycle in all its forms. A diverse curation of filmmaking styles: narratives, documentaries, animations, award-winning filmmakers, and emerging directors all share equal billing. BFF appeals to a wide audience from film connoisseurs to avid cyclists and everyone in between.

The curated collection of select short films will take you on a journey around the world, featuring stories about:

  • A bicycle takeover and one of the United States’ largest, most anticipated street riding events on the bikelife calendar attracting riders from the wheeling community worldwide.

  • Paralympic gold medalist, Meg Fisher, and young para athlete, Jack Berry, navigate life’s obstacles with grace, integrity, and each other.

  • A love between a father and his young BMX-rider son (produced by Lebron James)

  • The story of Reza Alizadeh, a blind bicycle mechanic in Mashhad, Iran.

  • A family gives up everything to be together in their motorhome, traveling from bike park to bike park across Europe.

  • Two women who bring a town together around mountain biking and their pizza shop

…And more!
