Tony Robbins, I Am Not Your Guru

Wednesday, July 13 - Tuesday, July 19, 2016

Each year, over 2,500 people converge on Boca Raton, Florida, to spend six days with the life and business strategist Tony Robbins for his mammoth seminar “Date with Destiny”.  For TONY ROBBINS: I AM NOT YOUR GURU, Robbins opened his doors to esteemed documentary filmmaker Joe Berlinger (Brother’s Keeper, Metallica: Some Kind of Monster, the Paradise Lost Trilogy) for his twelfth feature documentary. Granted unprecedented access (Robbins has never previously admitted a camera crew to the seminar), Berlinger treats audience to the actual, visceral experience of joining the ecstatic temporary community for six life-changing days in the company of the larger-than-life Robbins, filled with theatrics, blaring dance and rock music, meditation, tears, heartbreaking public confessions and laughter. Going behind-the-scenes to capture the intricate design and production of a “Date With Destiny,” TONY ROBBINS: I AM NOT YOUR GURU is an emotional tour-de-force of cinéma vérité that pulls back the curtain on Tony Robbins and unveils the inner-workings of this mega event, its zealous participants and the man himself.
