“Revolutions” is a short documentary that asks sports enthusiasts, brands, and manufacturers to think differently about environmental sustainability by putting sporting goods at the center of the conversation. The film uses the bike as a storytelling device to ask some important questions about sustainability such as: What happens to our “toys” when we’re done with them? What happens to a bike at its end-of-life stage? What would it take to design everything with the end in mind?
Dr Courtney Szto is an Assistant Professor in the School of Kinesiology and Health Studies. Her research focuses broadly on intersectional justice in the areas of sport and physical activist. Revolutions is her first film and it was recently awarded “Best Canadian Short Doc” at the BC Environmental Film Festival.
