Director Spotlight: Eric D. Seals on Bike Vessel

Oct 16

Eric D. Seals is a Chicago-based director and cinematographer who’s worked on projects from live sports and Netflix documentary series to ads. His directorial debut, Bike Vessel, follows a bike trip he took from St. Louis to Chicago with his father after his dad changed his lifestyle following three quadruple bypass operations. The film is both a funny and touching portrait of a father-son road trip while also commenting on racial health disparities and the systemic racism Black men face.

We chatted with Eric before the World Premiere of Bike Vessel on Sat. Oct. 14.
