Mythos

Kumaré is a 🏷️#documentary🏷️#feature_film about filmmaker 📝Vikram Gandhi impersonating a fake guru and built a following of real people. Winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary at SXSW 2011, Kumaré opened in theaters June 20, 2012, and is available on iTunes and Amazon. [1]

I first discovered it at the top of a 'Best Documentaries of the Decade' list. Kumaré is one of my all time favorites as it combines self-exploration, public experimentation, and unexpected paradigm shifts.

When it was recommended to 📝Emily Schmidt by 📝Tim Ferriss she asked if I'd seen it. I replied, "Yes. So good. When I did, I watched it three nights in a row and cried every time" and me watching it again.
