The jury said, "Pour son originalité, la credibilité et l'extravagance de ses personnages, sa distribution irréprochable, ses acteurs extraordinaires, sa mise en scène stylisé, funky et sexy, son impeccable direction artistique, sa trame sonore unique et jouissive... This irreverent love letter to the would-be rebels of the world delivers a wild bike ride into the best side of smart and socially conscious filmmaking. The true indie spirit of the north."
