The
Documentary

A personal short film about what life with autism feels like from the inside out. About growing up feeling just outside of everything, living with anxiety, fear and overwhelm. About using creativity to cope with a world that often feels too fast. How do you find your way when you don’t quite fit in, but still want to belong?

Available: end of 2025

The
Story

Stranger on the Road started as a creative outlet, but slowly grew into a way of communicating. To show what often feels too complex to put into just words: through songs, and visuals.

The music blends intimate singer-songwriter roots with hints of folk and country. The visuals are cinematic and dark, but always reaching for something warm and hopeful.

Behind the project is Henri Doornbos, Dutch multidisciplinary artist, singer-songwriter and visual storyteller with a background in photography, film and design. 

Deeply influenced by his experience with Autism and ADHD, he creates from a place of vulnerability. Showing what it means to feel, to search, and to belong — even when you don’t quite fit the mold.

In a fast-moving world that often feels too loud, the project offers space. A place to slow down, reflect, and feel seen. 

Since his debut EP INTRO in 2019, Stranger on the Road has grown organically. In 2024, new music started a new chapter, followed by a personal documentary, later this year.
