A documentary account of the British supergroup's influential 1968 trip to India.

Filmmaker Paul Saltzman was there to capture never-before-seen footage and interviews.

The trip was ill-fated, as Ringo Starr struggled with the spicy cuisine and left after 10 days, followed a couple of weeks later by Paul McCartney.

John Lennon and George Harrison stayed six weeks, but had a "falling out" with their host and guru, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

The experience infused their music, perhaps most notably "Sexy Sadie," (from their iconic White Album) which was critical of Maharishi.
