Near the Sky, Near the Earth, Nær himlen, nær jorden (1968) Jørgen Leth; Ole John

This film was shot in the autumn of 1967 among European and American hippies in Nepal. We observe the way of life these hippies have chosen to live outside of society in the light of the everyday rites and ceremonies of the Nepalese. We see that the hippie movement is not just a caprice of fashion, but a religion. We have to be here. To meditate. To pray. This way we can turn the atomic bomb into a flower.
