Summary In Canada's northern Yukon Territory, the winters are long and the month of January feels even longer. For the 1500 residents who reside in the town of Dawson City year round, sub-zero temperatures and little daylight are way of life. This unique scenario inspired two young filmmakers to document a whimsical and uplifting event - learning to ride a bicycle - in the middle of winter. This film was shot and edited over a two day period and submitted to the 48 Hour Film Competition, an annual film making event in Dawson City. It went on to win both the 'People's Choice' and 'Best Picture' Awards. More recently, it won the 'Emerging Artist' Award at the Dawson City International Short Film Festival in April 2011.
