Bike on Film: Outside In


 Thanks to the Netflix, and the boy getting us one of those Chromecast thingy-ma-bobs, I can keep this whole bikes on film thing going for another day. After taking a twenty year fall for a crime he did not commit, Chris (Jay Duplass) is released from prison and returns to his small hometown. As social tension builds within him, it does not take long to find his old bmx bike collecting dust out in the garage, nor the release that riding it still brings. Once again the bike is used as a means of escape and a symbol (as well as a real tool) of freedom. There is more involved in the plot, notably the social relationships, that Chris's return brings to the fore.
