Watching a teacher lead a group of schoolchildren around busy Bogotá on their little bikes, teaching them how to safely navigate their city on their own power, you might feel hopeful for the future of eco-friendly transportation.

Rating: 2/4 --
This surprisingly critical portrayal of a cyclist's utopia raises all kinds of issues about traffic planning and bike safety that the doc does not address.

Rating: 3/5 --

The film's message is certainly distressing -- there's no way humans can survive this collective auto-da-fé -- but at least the ride is fun.
