iBografi – One Manshow on the Bike is an intimate and unconventional essay film — and, as far as known, the first in film history to be created entirely by one person: no crew, no cast, no budget, and all filmed while cycling. During a solo journey through the Netherlands and Spain, the filmmaker poses philosophical questions — through sixteen Socratic intertitles — about religion, art, memory, and life itself. Poetic reflections, sharp humor, and autobiographical fragments alternate throughout the film. With singing, self-irony, and an unstoppable urge to understand, a film unfolds that is as raw as it is tender: a tribute to freedom, vulnerability, and the right to keep asking questions.
