The steep rise in fuel prices and environmental measures (extension of Low Emission Zones, in particular) raise the question of the future of transport in a glaring way. The "all car" model, as we have known it for decades, appears to be an unsustainable model in the long term. A small part of the population has anticipated this upheaval. Far from the automobile, the "Swiss army knife of transport", we will see how perfectly integrated families have managed to combine different travel solutions, to do without a car. Because for them, there is no longer a single vehicle good for everything, but a solution adapted to each trip: walking, cycling, public transport and sometimes even a car... rented. Because these families have also accepted the idea that it is no longer necessarily interesting to own your mode of transport. And even if the car remains predominant in our lives, the world of mobility is evolving at a rapid pace. This film therefore focuses on all recent developments: the explosion of bicycle travel, the revival of the train, the use of digital platforms to facilitate travel, the concept of simplified ticketing and climate tickets, etc. Enlightened by the comments of scientists specializing in mobility, this documentary questions the continuation of the frenetic pace of life that the car has imposed on us and proposes other solutions, a little slower, but probably more respectful of what we aspire to be.
