M.I.S.A.PĂRUT

M.I.S.A.PĂRUT takes as its starting point the media scandal surrounding the Movement for Spiritual Integration into the Absolute (MISA) and its run-ins with the Romanian justice system.
From the incredibly complex story of MISA, the creators of M.I.S.A.PĂRUT have chosen to bring you a deeply personal perspective, focusing on how the scandal affected everyday people practicing yoga at the MISA school—especially a young woman who was forcibly hospitalized in a psychiatric facility simply because of her association with the group.
In the end, rather than giving easy answers, we invite you to ponder some captivating questions: What is "normal"? How dangerous is a media that chases scandals at any cost? What attitudes and habits of mind have we inherited from the communist regime? How much do we truly value individual freedom versus tradition? And what happens when morality gets tangled up with the law?
