Made by Hand is a short film series "celebrating the people who make things by hand—sustainably, locally, and with a love for their craft." Their recent film features bicycle-maker Ezra Caldwell and his very personal story of how he began his education as an industrial designer, found dance, left dance, discovered a passion for building bikes and was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. His blog documents his life now and how he remains creatively engaged while dealing with the reality of his situation.
