Blue Highways is a four documentary film series based on the same title novel by the American Indian writer William Least Heat-Moon. Blue Highways is a road trip through the American province along its back roads, which were marked with the colour blue on the old highway maps from the 50's. To say it with Heat-Moon's words, this is a "space where man can get lost". Today, driving along the old back roads it's possible to reach America's true heart. Blue Highways is the expression of a profound relationship between man and landscape, resembling a eulogy of slowness in the frantic era of globalization. The Wealthiest and most advanced country in the world is primal and wild at heart.
