“Children of the Cult” is an international investigation into the Rajneesh movement. It tells the barely believable story of the treatment of children within the cult.

“Children of the Cult” is an international investigation into the Rajneesh movement. One of the world’s biggest and most successful cults, it had communes in more than 50 countries in the 70s and 80s and was immortalised in the Netflix series ‘Wild Wild Country’. But until now, a central truth about the organisation has remained hidden. Filmmaker Maroesja Perizonius, herself a child of the Rajneesh communes has connected with other former commune children and together, they’ve decided to change that. This film tells the barely believable story of the treatment of children within the cult.
