Welcome to the "Some Assembly Required" film project, a cross country documentary on a bicycle. The aspiration of one director to ride across the United States while speaking to American citizens about the effects of global warming. A unique chance for the American public to finally speak back to those that will listen, about their own accessibility to instill change. Recently gaining the support of Jodie Foster, we plan to use all proceeds earned from this film, to establish a new global warming foundation.
