Over the course of its 3000 year long tradition, the idea of ‘yoga’ is under perpetual reinvention: from Patanjali’s sutras describing an eight limbed system through to gymnastic type movements in a hot room, each new incarnation of guru, studio and literary manual offers an alternative concept. Today, an estimated 20 million people around the world practice ‘yoga’ and 72% are female. Eight Limbs Yoga follows a young Eurasian woman travelling the world to meet spitirual leaders and fellow practitioners. Meet sadhus in India, musicians in New York, food providers in New Zealand… this documentary offers a romantic glimpse in to the search for a meaningful yoga system, when gym yoga doesn’t bring peace. |
