The film OFF THE ROAD was made on and around Kowald´s
extended tour of the US in 2000. Following his journey around
the country in an old Chevrolet Caprice, the film is a sort
of ´free improvised road movie´ featuring meetings
with not only a caleidoscope of characters from out-of-the-mainstream
America, but also meeting with many of the great names of
Free Music.
At the same time it is a homage to Peter Kowald, whose
sudden death on September 21, 2002 shocked the musical community.
