Ashtanga NY: Yoga Documentary

In early September 2001, 86-year-old yoga instructor Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and his family came to New York City to teach a one-month workshop in the traditional discipline of Ashtanga yoga. This intriguing documentary follows the sessions, whose attendees included Willem Dafoe, Mike D and Gwyneth Paltrow, and shows how they became a lesson in fellowship and healing in the aftermath of the 9/11 tragedy. 60 min. Soundtrack: English; outtakes; featurettes.
