2008, Mohammad Reza Aslani, Iran, 110 min.
With Ezzatollah Entezami, Mahtab Keramati
The poetry of Sufi mystic Rumi was director Aslani’s major influence in creating this complex tale featuring narratives and tableaux sumptuously referencing Persian mythology and history. A young woman stranded on a roadside with her parents enters a seemingly abandoned desert fortress and travels back in time to discover that she is destined to become the bride of a dead man, the ancient warrior whose body pierced by seven darts lies in state in an upper chamber. This film has been screened in the 19th annual festival of Iranian Films at Chicago's Gene Siskel Center. In Persian with English subtitles.
