Project Details
Synopsis
A Vietnamese refugee raising his son alone in Southern California has never learned to ride a bicycle. When eight-year-old Tommy begs him to teach him, Linh tries - and fails. Rather than admit the truth, he secretly enrolls in an adult cycling class, where he finds himself among strangers whose lives, like his, were shaped by what they never got the chance to learn. A film about the quiet things displacement takes, and a father and son learning to ride together.
