Work Bike and Eat

40min, 16mm, 1972, Drama

Work Bike and Eat is about youth and being young. The intention in making the film was to capture people and the relationships between things in as natural a way as possible, and to minimize the apparent intrusion of the filmmaking process into the subject matter. The story is a collection of vignettes from everyday life: getting a job, eating a meal at home with your parents, chance meetings with strangers, and taking a nap. A carefree camaraderie pervades the film. – Keith Lock
