The performances of ‘Undertow’, ‘The Wake-Up Bomb’ and ‘Binky The Doormat’, included as B-sides on the ‘Bittersweet Me’ and ‘Electrolite’ singles, are taken from ''Road Movie''.

Aside from the members of R.E.M., the video also features guest musicians Nathan December , Scott McCaughey , and Australian violinist Amanda Brown , the latter of whom joins the band for ‘Losing My Religion’, ‘Binky The Doormat’, ‘Strange Currencies’, ‘Find The River’ and ‘Everybody Hurts’. For those fans who were unable to make it to any of the dates, it gives an example of the structure of the live show. Moving with the times, it has also been released in DVD format.

The "movie" was debuted at the 50th Edinburgh Film Festival in August 1996. The following month, during outside listening parties in Atlanta, Boston , Chicago , Los Angeles , and New York preview showings were projected onto buildings three stories high.

In 2001, to coincide with the release of '' Reveal '', a three-video box set comprising '' Tourfilm '', '' Parallel '' and ''Road Movie'' was released in the UK. ('' This Film Is On '' replaced ''Road Movie'' in the DVD-format release.)
