In September 1957 Viking Press, published On the Road - a novel by a little-known author Jack Kerouac. It was immediately acclaimed as a classic and made Kerouac famous overnight. He and other Beat Generation writers were inspirational in the development of 1960s counterculture, but Kerouac was openly critical of it. believing his work had been misunderstood. This documentary explores his life and complex personality, including his three month admission to a US Navy psychiatric hospital during World War Two to find out why he was such a reluctant icon.
