Production

The movie came about as director Thomas White became aquatinted with the Living Theatre troupe actors in Europe who sought to fill their time while waiting for founders Judith Malina and Julian Beck to return from America. The film was shot over the course of 10 or 12 days in Belgium, and 10 hours of raw footage was captured.

The movie premiered at the Locarno Film Festival in 1965 with a poor reception leading White to re-edit it and add a soundtrack. White, who lived in Paris, had many artistic friends and acquaintances and he recruited singer-songwriter Nino Ferrer, guitarist Ramon Ybarra, and British folk singer Marianne Faithfull. Most importantly, White convinced influential jazz musician Ornette Coleman, who was touring Europe, to record the soundtrack.
