Enlighten Us: The Rise and Fall of James Arthur Ray

"Enlighten Us: The Rise and Fall of James Arthur Ray" is the story of the motivational rock star's meteoric rise, fall and return to the $11 billion self-help industry after his negligent homicide conviction in the death of three clients at a sweat lodge at one of his events. As this story unfolds, we learn from Ray, his followers and his accusers, about how their methods of self-improvement ultimately caused so much suffering. "Enlighten Us" asks the important questions, "What are we looking for?" and "Who has the answers?" -- and even the simple question "Why?" This DVD features surround sound, English subtitles for the deaf and hearing-impaired, audio commentary from director Jenny Carchman along with the official "Enlighten Us" trailer.
