In the early 1960s, two Harvard professors began probing the edges of consciousness. Their experiments affected social change in the 60s, and over the following decades both would greatly impact modern thought: Timothy Leary as a counter-cultural legend, and Richard Alpert as Ram Dass, a spiritual teacher. Narrated by Robert Redford, this fascinating documentary (which received its world premiere at the Mill Valley Film Festival) traces their lives and work through rare footage and interviews, as well as contemporary commentary by Ram Dass, Andrew Weil, Ralph Metzner, Huston Smith, John Perry Barlow, Roshi Joan Halifax, Tsultrim Allione, Dean Chamberlain and others. Producer/Director: Gay Dillingham. (US 2014) 95 min.
