UKFF kicks off with a European premiere! Coming straight from its world premiere at SXSW is the new documentary feature by Fredrik Gertten, the director of Bananas!* and Big Boys Gone Bananas!*.

The bicycle, an amazing tool for change. Activists and cities all over the world are moving towards a new system. But will the economic powers allow it? 

From bike activists in Sao Paulo and Los Angeles, fighting for safe bike lanes, to the City of Copenhagen, where forty percent commute by bike daily, Bikes vs Cars looks at both the struggle for bicyclists in a society dominated by cars, and the revolutionary changes that could take place if more cities moved away from car-centric models.

Includes a Q&A with Fredrik Gertten.
