Soapbox Construction: 101 was filmed in the Mile End neighborhood of Montréal in summer 2021. Holly Timpener and Tess Martens worked in a garage and rummaged through the alley to find materials to build a soapbox to eventually race. Presented at the Lots of Love Festival in Montreal, Martens and Timpener challenged and queered gender expectations as they constructed soapbox cars for six hours. After numerous attempts and failures, they raced their soapboxes down a Montréal road in a friendly competition.
