Film annotation:
Freedom has always been a topical issue, especially in '60s and '70s America. This was a time of protest against Rock and Roll, hippie movement and marijuana use.
Easy Rider explores the societal landscape, issues, and tensions in the United States during the 1960s. The film written by Peter Honda and Denis Hopper, tells the story of two riders, who escape from reality to seek freedom on their Harley-Davidson, trying to lose the notion of time.
