Ciao Biciclette is a playful mini-opera velodrama about love, obsession, and the uneasy compromises that hold a relationship together. Told with marionettes, the film follows Marie and Josef as an anniversary dinner unravels into a strange, melancholy journey through bicycles, longing, habit, and control. Comic, dreamlike, and quietly sad, it asks whether two people can truly move together without leaving part of themselves behind.
