Romantic Warriors: Krautrock pt. 2 - Crowdfunding

Washington DC-based filmmakers Adele Schmidt and José Zegarra Holder are in the final stages of production of the second part of the Krautrock trilogy of documentary films – which, taken together, make up the fourth instalment of the excellent Romantic Warriors series, which began in 2010 with the film of the same name (focused on the prog scene of the US East Coast), and continued with About Rock in Opposition (2012), Canterbury Tales (2015), and Krautrock pt. 1 (2018).

Those of you who are interested in progressive music, and especially in this unique, ground-breaking subgenre, will not want to miss contributing to the completion of Krautrock pt. 2, which will focus on bands and artists from southern Germany – notably Guru Guru, Amon Düül II, Popol Vuh, Kraan, Xhol Caravan and Witthüser & Westrup. Krautrock pt. 1, which is currently screening in theatres throughout Germany, was focused on bands from Cologne, Düsseldorf and Hamburg – while Pt. 3 will concentrate on the Berlin scene.  Like its predecessors, the film will include interviews with musicians active in the 1970s, as well as original live footage.

Your contribution will allow Adele and José to complete what is a true labour of love. They are extremely dedicated to their craft, and their efforts fully deserve to be supported by prog fans.  You will not regret it!
