DESCRIPTION:
(from Sundance Now's web site, December 2024) Adapted from the New York Times bestselling book, this chilling exposé of the Hare Krishna movement tells the story of devotees like Nori Muster, a young woman from Los Angeles who joins to find inner peace and spiritual meaning but instead discovers a rotting heart of criminal activity taking place within the group. Drug smuggling, stockpiling weapons, and the subjugation and exploitation of female devotees metastasizes to widespread child sexual abuse and murder, all under the watch of the movement\'s spiritual leaders. Monkey on a Stick investigates how and why human nature drives some to dream the purest spiritual dreams but causes others to manifest our worst, basest nightmares. |
