City Messengers

An insight into the lives of London cycle couriers as they deal with crashes, deadlines and what lies ahead. From August 2008.

Documentary following the lives of two of London's 400 cycle couriers, whose working day is spent delivering packages across the city. The job is badly paid and the risk of serious injury is relatively high, yet there is a thriving sub-culture of people who have chosen the freedom of the road above the security of the office.
