"Wild Wild Country" tells a story so full of drama and tension that it could easily have come out of a Hollywood script. I couldn't believe that I had never even heard of this story before watching this documentary.
What I liked best about the documentary series was that no sides were taken throughout the entire duration.
Both the story of the Neo-Sanyassins, who set up a commune in a small town in Oregon where they practiced their religion, which was characterized by spiritual freedom, and the reactions to this from the residents of this town, most of whom had a problem with it and took measures, are only told here based on facts and interviews with those involved. So it is up to the viewer to form their own opinion about the situation.
Because they managed to get a lot of people in front of the camera for this documentary series who were deeply involved in the matter and because a lot of the events were filmed back then, you get a very detailed presentation of the events of that time.
"Wild Wild Country" is one of the best documentary series I have ever seen and I can only recommend everyone to take the time and lose themselves in this exciting story.
