Breaking The Rules – Across American Counterculture<br />
The history of counterculture has never been told in a<br />
cohesive way: neither in a form that appeals equally to all<br />
generations, nor has anyone explored the links between<br />
the different movements more intensively. Breaking The<br />
Rules aspires to close this gap.<br />
Breaking The Rules is a cineastic journey through time<br />
across the history of American counterculture, from the<br />
Beat Generation in New York and San Francisco all the<br />
way to the beginnings of Hip Hop in the Bronx. Always<br />
searching for the key moments that gave each movement<br />
its name, the film travels from coast to coast, encountering<br />
important eye-witnesses of the times. Enhanced by a captivating<br />
soundtrack (including studio and concert performances<br />
by Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Jimi<br />
Hendrix, Janis Joplin and others), compelling snapshots<br />
and exclusive archive material, their stories make counterculture<br />
come alive once again.<br />
