I would imagine “Sort by Controversial” as someone telling the story and having “flashbacks” to what happened. Not sure if that would work ok.
With “Samsara” the point is how the protagonist changes (unknowingly to him) from a normal person into a hardcore spiritual guru (while trying to be the opposite). That should be reflected by gradual changes in how the person dresses, walks, talks, etc. Even the “douchey/slutty” dress code for his followers should be suspiciously uniform-like (e.g. all having exactly the same color). I imagine examples of specific (anti-)spiritual exercises: “imagine a red car… it is a Porsche… very expensive… now focus on the front wheels… inhale… exhale… now focus on the back wheels… inhale… exhale...” said in the hypnotizing voice. (Or maybe with a tone of excitement at the beginning of the movie, but the calm hypnotizing voice later. The point is how the wannabe anti-guru converges to a regular guru anyway.
I imagine that the Blue Eyes might benefit from adding a short visual explanation (a bit like a Khan Academy video) for how exactly e.g. three people would in three days figure out that they have blue eyes. What I am trying to say is that sometimes a picture explains an idea better than a dramatic dialog.

OK, looking forward to your videos!
