Description

The film tells the fascinating story of the rise and fall of Indian guru Bhagwan for the first time from the perspective of his German followers. What was it about the man they called and worshiped Osho that fascinated them? And why did they give up everything in order to be able to follow their idol to India and the USA? The documentary filmmaker Jobst Knigge managed to win the trust of some sannyasin. They tell their very personal story and give a deep insight into their life with the charismatic guru in the 70s and 80s.
