Dan (Don McKellar) and Linda (Tracy Wright) are a jaded couple of 40ish radicals who survive off the grid in Toronto by scavenging garbage and selling it. Dan refurbishes abandoned or liberated bikes and sells them for a profit. Linda has an eye for junk with antique value. Ironically, they've become so good at what they do that they seem to be slowly becoming subsumed by the value system that they are rebelling against.

Their flagging counterculturalism and dysfunctional relationship is challenged by the arrival on the scene of a young dope pusher, Susan (Nadia Litz). When she starts acting on ideas she reads in Dan's radical literature, Dan and Linda are forced to face some painful truths.

Enjoyable performances and Reginald Harkema's stylised direction can't hide the silliness of the central premise that involves tossing Molotov cocktails at SUVs to hit back at "the system". But with its rebel soundtrack and witty dialogue, it remains a diverting experiment. It's also nice to see bicycles being appreciated on the big screen.
