RUMI - TURNING ECSTATIC

Rumi was a 13th century Muslim philosopher and poet who, according to several sources, has outsold another literary giant by the name of Shakespeare over the past decade. The influence of his all-encompassing message of peace, love and understanding has gained even more traction in the 21st century. This film directed by Stephen Roloff chronicles Producer Tina Petrova's life affirming experience after discovering Rumi’s teachings and the history of the eclectic, peaceful philosophy that’s expounded in his writings.
