Hare Krishna! The Mantra, the Movement and the Swami Who Started It All (2017)
Hagiography of Swami Prabhupada
It's a nice film in its own way. There's a lot of interesting period footage that people who like the hippie era and the sixties will appreciate. Most importantly, the film will be appreciated by all followers of Hare Krishna and Swami Prabhupada. Prabhupada was undoubtedly an extremely interesting man who accomplished many extraordinary things in his late life. The film is not a biography, but rather a hagiography - an uncritical confession of Prabhupada. The film ostensibly touches on sensitive subjects to appear objective, but it doesn't really touch on the really serious issues involved in the movement, nor does it go too deeply into the philosophy and teachings of the Bengali Vaishnavas themselves. This leaves the film superficial and boring for me throughout.

Wonderful story and beautiful animation
One of the best films of the year. A deep story, insightful for both adults and children. Psychedelic animation and beautiful music add to the charm of the story. I highly recommend it.
