THE SOURCE FAMILY
Q&A WITH DIRECTOR JODI WILLE AND ISIS AQUARIAN

1/28/21

Edendale Library
Los Angeles, CA
(Remotely through Zoom)

Join us Thursday January 28 at 6:00 p.m. PST to discuss The Source Family (Jodi Wille and Maria Demopoulos, 2012). Filmmaker Jodi Wille and original Source Family member Isis Aquarian will join us for this discussion.

The Source Family was a radical experiment in '70s utopian living. Their outlandish style, popular health food restaurant, rock band, and beautiful women made them the darlings of Hollywood's Sunset Strip; but their outsider ideals and the unconventional behavior of their spiritual leader, Father Yod, caused controversy with local authorities. They fled to Hawaii, leading to their dramatic demise. Years later, former family members surface and the rock band reforms, revealing how their time with Father Yod shaped their lives in the most unexpected ways. This documentary provides an intimate view of this incredible group of people through their own archival photos, home movies, audio recordings, and contemporary interviews with members of the family.
