In the 1890s countryside, Lettice Bly learns to ride a bicycle with the help of her new scientific friend.
In 1890s Britain, women cycling shocks the nation. Lettice Bly sets forth, armed with her new bicycle and scandalous bloomers.
But cycling isn't as easy as she thought, and passerby science geek Millicent Frimley-Pratt aims to help her soar with the power of physics.
The 1890s cycling boom did more for women's freedom of movement than any argument of the period: a bicycle carried its rider well beyond the reach of a chaperone, and the rational dress it demanded drew as much outrage as the machine itself.
A seven-minute period short set in 1890s Britain, directed and produced by Nicole Sarah Fry and written by Jasmine Fry.
