Hare Krishna! The Mantra, the Movement and the Swami who started it all is a documentary on the life of Prabhupada — the 70-year-old Indian Swami who arrived in America without support or money in the turbulent 1960s. It explores how he ignited a spiritual revolution in consciousness, known worldwide as the Hare Krishna Movement.
A documentary on the life of an unexpected, prolific, and controversial revolutionary. Using never-before-seen archival verite, Prabhupada’s own recorded words, and interviews with scholars and his early followers, the film takes the audience behind-the-scenes of a cultural movement implanted in the artistic and intellectual scene of New York’s Bowery, the hippie mecca of Haight Ashbury, and the Beatle mania of London, to meet the Swami who started it all.
