Marinoni: The Fire in the Frame is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Tony Girardin and premiered in 2014.[2] The film profiles Giuseppe Marinoni, a former competitive cyclist turned bicycle manufacturer who at age 75 is attempting to set a new cycling time record for his age bracket.[1] As a secondary storyline, the film also focuses on Marinoni's longtime friendship with champion cyclist Jocelyn Lovell.[3] He raced on a Marinoni bike until his career ended when a motorist drove their dump truck into him, leaving Lovell a quadriplegic.[4]

The film premiered at the Hot Docs Canadian International Film Festival in 2014.[2]

The film received two Canadian Screen Award nominations, for Best Feature Length Documentary and Best Editing in a Documentary, at the 3rd Canadian Screen Awards in 2015.[5]
