Summaries

Documentary exploring how John, Paul, George and Ringo fell in love with Indian culture while visiting the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi at his Himalayan ashram in 1968.

A unique historical chronicle of the enduring love affair between The Beatles and India that started more than half a century ago. Rare archival footage, photographs and eye-witness accounts, along with location shoots across India, bring alive the fascinating journey of George, John, Paul and Ringo from their high-octane celebrity lives in the West to a remote Himalayan ashram in search of spiritual bliss - a time that inspired an unprecedented burst of creative songwriting. This is the first serious exploration of how India helped shape the evolution of the iconic band, and how they helped bridge two vastly different cultures.—UK Asian Film Festival
