nfb.ca “A groundbreaking film on the homeless” — Vancouver Sun In the picture-postcard community of North Vancouver, filmmaker Murray Siple follows men who have turned bottle-picking, their primary source of income, into the extreme sport of shopping cart racing. Enduring hardships from everyday life on the streets of Vancouver, this sub-culture depicts street life as much more than stereotypes portrayed in mainstream media. The films takes a deep look into the lives of the men who race carts, the adversity they face, and the appeal of cart racing despite the risk.

    @ashi33babi33 I know, i was just acting like an ass. i’ve done it in the netherlands too but it wasn’t that fast. I did put on my rollerskates and stand in the middle of the storm though. I went for about 60 kmp/h. just as adrenaline pumping. XD.
