Within Reach
A DVD About an Incredible Journey
DVD Region Code: 0 (international)
Run Time: 99 Minutes
Release Date: 2013

Mandy and Ryan were not satisfied with their everyday routine so they gave up their jobs, houses, cars, and belongings and packed up their bikes and hit the road. And so began their great search for a more harmonious and fulfilled existence.

The FIC is pleased to share with you this powerful documentary that follows Mandy and Ryan thorough this life-changing experience.

Within Reach is a road movie traveling through very diverse eco-villages, cohousing, communities, co-op houses, communes, and transition towns. It’s an enriching way to learn about communal living, practical aspects of sustainability, and is a lively celebration of the power of living connected.

Cycling 6500 miles and visiting more than 100 communities, Mandy and Ryan find adventure, friends, challenge and accomplishment.

The secret ingredient to a sustainable lifestyle, they find, could be community: meaningful relationships, simple living, respect and connection to the environment, and most important, a place to find contentment within themselves.

We offer today two very special deals:
$20 for the DVD (was $25)
plus Free U.S. Ground Shipping with the coupon code “100Communities”
$50 for the Screening Kit (was $100)

Check out our website to learn more about this offer, get extra information on the movie, watch the trailer, and get a sample list of the communities visited by the riding couple!

Get inspired by their exciting journey and maybe, as Mandy and Ryan did, you will change your life too!

Check out Chris Roth’s review of Within Reach that appeared in Communities magazine #157.
