Bob Dylan's America

A Five-Part Documentary Series

Documentary

Bob Dylan – Almost no singer-songwriter of the 20th century has conveyed as deep an insight into the American soul as Bob Dylan. The musician Wolfgang Niedecken, singer and songwriter of the German music group BAP, took to the roads of America to take a closer look at this soul. In five individual episodes, Niedecken meets American people who help him better understand Dylan and Dylan’s country: artists, photographers, journalists and, of course, musicians.
