The Fire of Yoga
a documentary film narrated by Ali MacGraw

A surprising look at Yoga — an ancient discipline that today is practiced by over 11 million Americans. This documentary breaks common stereotypes about yoga, as it travels from the South Bronx, to the Deep South, and finally to Hollywood. Along the way, you will see an ex-inmate, a Southern Baptist, and a recovering alcoholic find more than they expected to as they overcome great hardships through yoga.
