The Alley Cat
This road movie on a bicycle takes place over a single night. Jasper and her bike messenger friends compete in an alley cat race - an underground, alcohol-fueled bike race through Chicago’s deserted nighttime streets. Jenny Strubin stars as Jasper, the same character from Ullrich’s award-winning, festival favorite short "Faster!" in a completely new set of circumstances. When the night takes a hard turn, Jasper sets out alone on a long ride through the dark. Her ride becomes a spiritual journey as Jasper engages with eccentrics and loners, heading toward her mysterious destination and its emotional secret.
