15. "Nine Years" by Lone Twin
The bearded duo recounts their first nine years together as they traveled the world and performed impromptu theater on the street for the local citizens of whatever town they happened to visit – often dressed in their bicycle gear (pictured).

The stories were interspersed with Beckettian monologues — one of which was repeated six times with only slight variation — and fast-paced film clips of their travels. Zzzz...
