THE SYNOPSIS
“Twisted Yoga” follows a group of young yoga students from around the world drawn to the ancient practice in search of inner peace and purpose. However, they fall under the influence of the reclusive Romanian “guru”, Gregorian Bivolaru. He is the spiritual leader of an international network of yoga studios specialising in tantric rituals. As these students begin to fear they’ve joined a cult, they discover that Bivolaru, who often summoned select female students to his Paris apartment for private initiations, has a dark past. Now, Bivolaru faces charges in France, including human trafficking, kidnapping, and rape, allegations he denies. Meanwhile, these women work with French authorities to convict him.
“Twisted Yoga” is produced for Apple TV by Lightbox, in association with Ladywell Films. Simon Chinn, Jonathan Chinn, Suzanne Lavery and Bernadette Higgins serve as executive producers, with Deacon directing.
Twisted Yoga premieres globally on Apple TV on March 13th.
