Tony Samara, a meditation teacher living in northern Germany, has spent his entire life traveling the world in search of answers to chaos and disharmony. Surrounded by a troubling world, he must draw on his experiences with Buddhism and shamanism to help others find peace within. Yet, the fast paced, technological world cannot be ignored. If there is any hope for society to change on a large scale, it must embrace modernity. As he types on his iPad and makes television appearances, Tony leaves behind dogmas and instead focuses on practicalities. What Tony teaches is that there is no single set of answers to life's problems. Rather, every person must live in the present and look within themselves to find harmony.

'Low-Pull Artist' is a real story about a real person, Charles Case and his extraordinary journey through life. It takes the viewer from his early childhood where he witness the death of his mother to his middle years of reckless skydiving and miraculous escapes from death as a low-pull artist (holding the rip cord to the final split second before deploying his parachute in time to save himself) through increasingly violent behavior and a turn to salvation as a born-again Christian. It is a story about the pain of loss and how one individual copes with his life attempting to dispel the demons and find peace. It is a common story in our country today as millions of struggling Americans turn to religion as a spiritual refuge from the fierceness of capitalism and all its material manifestations.
