Women in the Front Seat

This is an excellent film with a heart. It was riveting to watch as each woman in this documentary revealed her inner most truth. Though differing in backgrounds, ages, and experiences, the common denominator was their passion for motorcycles and what they overcame to do what they love. Their openness was like looking into their souls, very inspiring and a gift to be privy to their life journeys. So many fascinating women like Rosie and Mere and Wendy and all of them really. It made me think about how many people don't follow whatever their passion is and perhaps never live their lives to the fullest. Indy Saini has made an inspirational and artistic documentary. The photography, music, and the editing are first rate. Whether or not you are a motorcyclist, this film should not be missed.

This documentary is incredible. Listening to people share about their passion is so motivating to me. I loved seeing all the different bikes and hearing each of their stories was incredible. This film makes me want to get back on a bike and hit the open road. The cinematography is great and I love how the put everyones stories together.

This movie will motivate you to spend time with the passions in your life no matter what it is. You do not have to be into motorcycles to enjoy this movie.

I highly recommend this documentary to everyone that has a passion not just motorcyle enthusiastics. Greart job!

Tremendous documentary sharing a slice in the life motorcycle lovers and adventure lovers. It goes beyond mere passion for hitting the open road on your favorite bike, but moves deeper into the inner meaning of seeking out new and exciting places and adventures that are edifying and healing. Women in the Front Seat also motivates the viewer to chase their passions and dreams while there is still time. Though the film is a love letter to those with a passions for bikes and charting courses on the open road, its lessons apply universally to fulfill any passion, dream or calling. Combined with a host of colorful characters, sweeping cinematography, and a great sound track, this is a documentary that shapes a viewing experience you won't want to miss!

If you're in the mood for something light and inspiring, look no further. There's not much conflict here, or drama, or worry. What you WILL find instead is a huge group of people throwing you on the back of their bikes and taking you on a tour of the passion that ties them all together. Look, I'm a mid-30s guy, I've never ridden a motorcycle. But I still found the glimpse into this subculture fascinating. Footage of long trips through various locales is so romantic it hurts.

Each of these lovely ladies have had their own journey to this hobby and many of them find different reasons to keep with it. Yet there is a through line that connects all of them. They each have a desire for independence as women. Many of these see this as a challenge to overcome. And for seemingly all of them, they have discovered that riding gives them a sense of freedom and peace that few other things have. Highly recommend if you're in for a doc that explores a little corner of humanity you may not be too familiar with.

From the first few seconds Indy Saini's wonderful movie grabs your attention as you metaphorically get right there on the ride with her and for the next 75 minutes she expertly navigates you through the culture of women who love motorcycles. It takes a special kind of director to illicit the vulnerability and sometimes heartbreaking honesty from her many and varied woman interviewees each of whom has unique and deeply personal reasons for their common passion for bikes. However, this documentary is also a masterclass in DIY filmmaking and the throughline of this story is Saini's own journey around America, alone on her Indian Scout, braving the elements, to get the story on video. In the process, she deftly subverts the Icarian narrative of self-destruction that we subconsciously attach to stories of men and motorcycles. Under her careful control, like Daedalus and his wax wings, the motorcycle is a life-affirming means to freedom and empowerment.
