- SXSW 2012 INTERACTIVE AWARD WINNER FOR FILM & TV
The Goa Hippy Tribe project is about people who shared a common space and time on the shores of Goa, India during the 70's 'hippy revolution' and are now re-uniting after more than 30 years via Facebook.
Director Darius, who spent his early years living on the beaches of Goa, traveled back to document this unique re-union of an old community. The video interviews were posted to the Goa Hippy Tribe Facebook page creating a unique full circle link to the story. The project was Funded by SBS television, Screen Australia, Screen NSW and was a co production between Freehand Productions, Being Films and Dubz TV.

Its human nature to find beautiful places and spoiling it 😁
Today our Goa I'd totally destroyed by our greedy politicians and the real estate sharks who have come from rest of India and turning our beautiful Goa into a concrete jungle.
If you weren’t such a hopeless bum, maybe you could have earnt some money and bought the beaches and land for yourself… fkn hippee scum.
"...our Goa".... poor Indians
Arrived there overland from London by Magic Bus. My first trip abroad from England. 78/79. I was not a hippie. That said, Anjuna then was a WONDERFUL place full of amazing people. At the age of 73, Eight Finger Eddie remains a true icon in my life. I treasure the conversations. Rest easy my good friend.
And no, having seen this video, would I EVER entertain going back.
wtf, we had the great times!
Back in 1971 I went on the Magic Bus From Shepherds Bush West London to Amsterdam and on to Goa the Hippie Trail..
Hey David when was your last visit to goa?
David Clarke Did you hear about it on Radio Caroline ? (ship based pirate radio station)
David Clarke hope this finds you well ? Are you back in the bush now ?

As a Sikh growing up in Goa ..The Hippies did discover our beautiful state ..n added their flavor ..both good n bad ..Sadly the Govt only maxed the tourist harvestshamelessly..n hv brought myriad problems to the Goan people ..It needs a paradigm shift ..to stop the crass urbanization of our land ..Let's fight it ..Viva Goa

Yes Lion King it is a blessed place Goa. The early hippies were clean and respectful of the holy soil. I was one of them. Very sad to see the plastic there. This is a Global poisoning of our planet by oil industry. The most remote beaches in the world have plastic on them. Education starts at home in the community. Cannabis can replace all plastics and oil products, Teach your children well. Namaste
Go back to ur state Punjab.
must've been paradise 50 years ago -- like so many places (and cities).
Still mostly the same
It's not same...fields orchid land are converted..rivers polluted, beaches dirty..crz violations..influx of non goans LEDs to foreigners disappear..
And everyone is getting old i guess..waw such memories..so good memories to reminisce always
Bring back the hippie era!
@Faye Flower Its sad that society views the idea of being part of that counter culture is that...
@Kosmos de Kosmopoliet it will die off if the world views the counter culture as representing those
@Faye Flower it's the false view society has on "hippies." Even the word has a negative attachment...but why? What's so bad about peace, love, and happiness? I guess those things can screw up a country according to some people.
Kosmos de Kosmopoliet at least there living a better life than you
Hippie is piece of shit.... Always been in influence of drugs and selfishness.... Hippies are psychotic idiotic drug abusers for artificial happiness....
Met him,78/79. As a former Hells Angel may I say that the conversations we had at Joe Banana's and Mannu and Suresh's will stay with me forever.A special time and a truly unique man. 'Twas an honour, Eddie. Respect fella........x
India is special... love is here... 💚
I lived on the beaches and in the caves in south of Crete in the mid late 90s. It was amazing time, amazing people.
I was there with you mate

I think drugs can be a wonderful thing, but like many other things in life it can be harmful if abused. Marijuana and psychedelic drugs (mushrooms) are beneficial to the human mind in my opinion.
i agree. I think one of the biggest lessons in life to be learned is balance.
@@dennisleporte2327 hey Dennis have you been to goa?
@@gowdaranjith7 Sadly I have not. Though I should think it would be a great exeperience...
@@dennisleporte2327 You should! I had been there for couple of times. Such a great place, I have plans to visit next month.
@tony - with ya on that man.
They have lived their lives at its best.....jai shambhu....
Goa has been destroyed when ‘Goans’ left.
So which pepole live there
aniket Sawant I’d rather not say
@@Lucknow472 ok is so bad
aniket Sawant what?
Goans left?? Where are they now???
I can’t understand all the bad negative comments here,seems like there are some very troubled people,I enjoyed your doco
To all the foreign and domestic tourists on this comment thread..if u have really enjoyed the beauty of goa, and it has made your life better
Then contribe, CONTRIBUTE to its economy, do something good here..dont just leach off on what it has to offer..dont just do drugs and booze and make a mess of yourself in the name of self- discovery.
I know most of you have left your country and are settled in goa..respect the place just like you respect your country..keep it clean
Just because the government slacks in its duty doesnt mean we should...remember wjat we do today is what the place will be tommorow
Live in the moment. Try everything.
even arsenic?

What a beautiful bunch of humans 🤍
gosh, he s still there, finger eddie.....it was a gas in the 70ies.....not now.
+acapulco ramon Eddie passed shortly after we finished filming this project. It was an honour to get to spend that time with him.
@@BeingHere Yes eddie was the warmest welcome mat in Goa. The man who new where everything was. A peacemaker too. He loved to hand press pollen and was a pro, big hands. We pressed a few tolas together our first meeting. Via con Dios
@@petepenn1 Yes he was a one of a kind.
Its not human nature to find beautiful places and spoil it, I know many that dont. Its in narcissistic humans their nature to find beautiful places and spoil it, especially from the West.
@wtnomad Especially from the West, not only from the West. You should read more.... ;)
I am also well travelled and i have not met a single native who has invented things like plastic, DDT and WW1&2... so go justify yourself pale pig racist colonizer... we know what you are and what you are not
Changed for me in 1992, when the Happy Monday , Manchester knobs started getting package holidays there.
Dont slag off the happy mondays brother, I guess you dont like techno either! Ha, you're sound like such a bourgeoisie!
@@mrtambourineman6107 I loved the Mondays, just disliked the neds that were not very adventurous.
1) "Facebook is what brought all these people together and they all hate it and they all say how terrible it is..." - Facebook doesn't bring people together or change lives, it is a tool people can use to reconnect or to change their lives, but one they can also use to hurt others with.
2) They spoke about how 'everything changed' in terms of the drugs and music - If they defined who they were in terms of what they were taking and what music they were listening to, it is little surprise that 'everything changed' - the thing people don't always get about hippy and similar groups is that it is not about the drugs, about the music, they are taking drugs as part of something else - this is part of being free and (re)connecting to the universe. Giving people marijuana and hallucinogens and playing psychedelic rock does not make them into hippies, there has to be a real desire to leave most of what has now become entrenched in our society behind.
3) there is a lot of freedom, a lot of fun, yes - but there is a degree of hard work and sacrifice which can not be denied. Being a hippy is not just about running away from your alleged responsibilities, smoking hash and dancing topless in the moonlight, it is about building something new, questioning what is important and exploring what we can leave behind. I would not so much compare a hippy to a crazy homeless person but rather to a monk living on a high mountain top.
I was raised by hippy parents, I do not want to identify myself as belonging to any group or assign meaning to things - I am sharing my understanding of this for people who think that if they join a facebook group, camp out on the beach and smoke a lot of outdoor they can revive the hippy movement.
The reasons people chose this lifestyle are not only still around, they are even more relevant - the question is if anything meaningful can be achieved by trying to embrace such principles in modern times...
Patrick Gill appreciate your thoughts.
Wish people could all be Hippie!
Uh.... no you don't.
Very cool video!
We loved indian people more than any new turist.tikee!!
Is this the place in india steve jobs went when he was young and looking for the meaning of life..
No. He went to Neem Karoli Baba's Ashram in the foothills of The Himalayas.
No.. this is south.. he went north.. huge country..
No he went to utharakghand. Even Mark suckenburg has camed to the same place
I went in 1998 , it was amazing. Recently read Cleo Odzer's book, Goa Freaks. It has changed my feeling towards these hippys and not particularly in a good way. Read it and make your own judgement.
*In Once upon a time in Hollywood movie, the hippie scenes were quite accurate*
Hope to meet them one day
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 beautiful video
Thanks Rahul :)
Also if ya dig and enjoyed this video Goa hippy tribe which was cool and still a long haired after all these years though with a changed heart and peace 😀 you may also enjoy the song " Most of All " By Glenn Kaiser and Where Roses Grow Live by Rez Band Awesome songs check them out. Also I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and a good question to ask yourself if you were to die today would you go to heaven ? And if yes why ? To find out more please read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on TH-cam. 😀

Goa Gil just being himself!
After 5 years of apathy an not giving a damn, I woke up in 81 after they murdered one of my inspirations John Lennon. Then became an activists. Still am today. Hippie to me is someone who cares about this fragile planet and what lives on it. You can chase financial security and still care. I made a video, on my channel about What happened to the Woodstock Dream? ✌️
Why is the planet fragile?
I don't believe that.
Yóú are maybe fragile, I think 🤔
Been there 1999
Dont miss Goa.....i guess i took to much ....!
brilliant
They just took and never gave back anything!
Well said
They created Goa "tourism" the way we know it now
Is there a full video available?
Wonderfull docu. I awill be in goa by nov or december this year, letsv meetv and make friends, anyone interested.❤
5.01 "all these people that are saying its spiritual place, they are fucking dreaming"😂😂😂

Wonderful times

That guy is wrong!
Hippies still exists, now they are called as "Vloggers!"
Thats happy tribe 😁😁
Could you please Tell me what Camera you are holding at minute 4.44?
Wahnsinn. Ick wär jern dabei jewesen
I remember when the hippies came back from their long journey and saw that the hippie world in the west was over and their friends had turned into junkies.
wow
I want to join hippy culture..
I liked this music a lot. Whose is it?
Alento Sandhay Sanjana beat finder
It's just normal classical music. There's no fixed "pieces" in India like "Symphony no. 5" or something. It's just ragas (set of made-up rules about which notes / flats / sharps are allowed / disallowed in this particular raga - then it's pure freestyle). Anyone can make up a raga and 2 musical sessions using the same raga can sound markedly different overall, while still being identifiable by someone who recognizes notes. As far as I know SaReGaMaPaDhaNiSa is almost identical to DoReMiFaSoLaTiDo.

Who is background music for video?
Does it still exist?
would love to do a colab project with you
You look wonderful Penny. You were only being ironic about your mobile phone?
Background score please? It's fantastic!
Goa,Arambol, India 🇮🇳
Curtin University Students, Y'all know what to do !!!
Why is there only one race of people who do this hippie business? I am very free spirited but I will never want to be a hippie or be part of a hippie commune. Well to each their own. How about all those hippies get together and help the people of Goa, organise and start a movement for the good of Goa.✌
Paradise and hell both are creations of thought....both don't exist....
4:20 which is that music? Anyone knows

I ended up in Kathmandu.
I missed it but I want to recreate the era
In my opinion hippies were neither good or bad necessarily, I doubt they all did the same things. Im sure some of them used psychedelics responsibly and didn't overdo and abuse them, im sure not all of them had casual sex. Spirituality doesn't involve random meaningless sex, that's no different than modern american life anyway. In america hookup culture is very prominent and normal even though it harms many peoples mental health. Spirituality isn't supposed to be destructive to anyone including yourself. I don't wish to offend anyone who considers themselves a hippy but it seems like a big majority of hippies were drug addicted and sex addicted. Addiction is the opposite of spirituality, spirituality is how you set yourself free and all addiction does is enslave you.
He didn't.... He said it seems ffs!!
@wtnomad I admire hippies and they changed america in a great way, they paved the way for free thinking and spiritual interest, im just saying they weren't very developed as a whole spirituality in a practical way. Many of them converted to hindu or buddhism taoist ect. Being hippy alone isn't a form of spirituality, its an introduction or beginning of consideration to it.
Hippy =free style of life.100% independent with the nature.
Balls... Not even close to a real tribal barefoot indigenous... hippies are a pretentious cult..
Utterly dependent on the dealer down the street ;)
Sad to see what has happnd to Goa
'Brent Cross' For the Hippies...Avoid Goa like the plague, a refuge for those that we're incapable of change. Locked in some kind of 'zombie zone' wishing the sixties had never ended... weird!!
lol Facebook was a total trip maaan for first gen hippies.
They are just people. We should stop giving names to everything and everyone.
There's Goan beer named by eight finger Eddie..
Hippy are those play Holi every day of their life and live with present.
A Hippy is someone who leaves the kingdom of the Money Gods and lives in the kingdom of the Pleasure Gods (Bacchus, Dionysus, Rati etc.)
Here's a list of Pleasure Gods should you wish to emmigrate to their lands

Background music ?
Alentejo Sandhay Sanjana they have apps for this type of thing now.😀
@@elliottjames671 Shazam ?
Yup. These people who we usually avoid cause they are too flashy roaming the streets. Yup. I didn't know it was a sort of community. Locals liked them cause ,you know, business. They did contribute to the economy..... haha.

Goa Gil: Why? Marty McFly: To prevent a horrible development of a music style in the future called ’hi-tech’!

youre all crazy
People in general are weak, mentally, physically and spiritually. Cos, because of their for their lust of instant gratification...Bhoo hoo...
jeezies; so i just watched this for the first time in Jan 27 2020...and tho i never met any of those Goa people ( prolly because i had fleas in Kathmandu ), i straight away thought 'my people'...especially some of those old girls with nice plastic teeth like mine,,, the thought of getting amongst some nice herb, some clean LSD, lil bit of MDMA with those people,,, would be so wonderful for me - about the coolest thing i can think of. I doubt if i would be prepared to suffer Goa for it, or India, or anywhere chinese holiday - as i write, coronavirus is trying to take over the world. Bat soup was never going to be a good idea.
Its april 17th 2020 covid 19 took over the whole Earth almost.
