Thursday Fields

Horace Burrowes runs a regular Thursday night bicycle race at a defunct airport in Brooklyn. The old runways are crumbling. The only prizes are bragging rights and petty cash. The riders are from every walk of life, and from countries all over the globe. And yet Horace manages to hold everything together through love of the sport and force of personality. Thursday Fields is a portrait of a strikingly diverse subculture, and a look into the melting pot that is New York City.

My take

A quietly inspiring portrait of an unlikely community bound together by passion and a single man's infectious love of the sport. Watch this if you want to feel connected to something real and human—no drama needed.
