SYNOPSIS

[EN] “Bicycle Face” is a film essay that reflects on the relationship between women and bicycles from a contemporary perspective. Fragments of films, archival images, texts, fictional scenes, and bicycle sounds form this audiovisual collage, which aims to be a tribute to women's freedom, their capacity for struggle, and resistance. The starting point is a historical event that takes us back to the late 19th century when women began riding bicycles. It was then that a made-up disease was diagnosed with the goal of dissuading women from riding bicycles.
