Documentary film, 2022, Germany, 22 min.
Director: Felix Bartke, Nils Ramme
Synopsis:
“Cruiser” shows fragments of a subculture practiced in the German city of Oberhausen, that transfers symbols and practices of the outlaw motorcycle scene to cycling. Jan is awarded the group's patch at the campfire, Hercules makes tea in the workshop and Sidney gets a Mohawk haircut by his father.
The group's rituals and the sensuality of their two-wheelers are at the center of the film alongside the construction of masculinity.
Documentary observations are contrasted with a 16mm plane, in which symbols, codes and poses of the group are contextualized in an pictorial language.
