Planet Yoga Movie Synopsis

Skeptical about yoga's current popularity, filmmaker Carlos Ferrand begins a search around the world to better understand this phenomenon. Through the testimony of various followers from North America, Europe and India, Ferrand discovers the intricacies of the discipline, combining posture, breathing and meditation, whose ultimate goal is to achieve physical and mental balance. A philosophical practice that's become, in this era of globalization, the symbol of the communion between Eastern spirituality and Western material wealth.
