Easy Rider in the cult: freedom and rebellion on a large screen!

On Thursday, November 14, 2024, film fans in the Kult Westmünsterland in Vreden have the unique opportunity to experience the cult film "Easy Rider" on the big screen! The road movie from 1969, directed by Dennis Hopper, captivates the audience with his story about freedom and rebellion in the exciting 1960s of America. The demonstration begins at 7 p.m. and admission is free! However, prior registration is necessary, either on the information on site or by phone at 02861/681-1415.

"Easy Rider" is more than just a film-it is a manifesto of the 68 generation! The story follows two men, Wyatt and Billy, who drive to New Orleans on their motorcycles from Los Angeles to make money with their stolen drug. On their adventurous journey, they meet weird characters, including hippies and alcoholics, and have to face the intolerant American society. The whole ends in a tragic finale that captivates the audience and stimulates thought.

A look at film history

The demonstration is part of the popular "Cinema in the Kult" series, which has been running since October 2024 and shows a monthly film classic - an invitation to the exciting world of cinema! In addition, there is always a short film science analysis that helps the viewers to better understand the social upheavals of the time. According to "Easy Rider", film enthusiasts can look forward to a number of other classics, including "Being or Non -Nied" on December 12, 2024 and "Play me the song of death" on January 8, 2025.
