  • Planète Yoga

–

How did words like nirvana, karma, guru, reincarnation, meditation, and “Om” come to be part of everyday language in the West? The answer lies in yoga, the fastest‐growing spiritual practice around the world.

Planet Yoga tells the fascinating story of the encounter between the ancient eastern discipline of yoga and a western population. This convergence has given birth to the most popular mind‐body movement on the planet. Featuring a colorful cast of characters, a compelling musical score, and unexpected locations on three continents, the film explores yoga’s social significance and its powerful attraction for a Western world in search of meaning. Behind the joyful energy of Planet Yoga is the collective admission that materialism has hit a wall, and it is now time to look inwards for meaning and peace.
