Storyline
A woman and her activism on wheels. The combination of sports and the academy, of competition and reflexion. This is a short portrait of Angélica Ordóñez, feminist, PhD in Anthropology but, first and foremost, cyclist.Cycles is part of Cámara Casera (in English: Home Video Camera), a non-profit project leaded by a minimum crew, whose objective is telling stories with a home video camera and very few—almost non-existent—resources. The project’s slogan is: “We do what we can with the little we have.”
