And enchanting tale of the heart
Bab Aziz is a feast for the eyes, the ears, and most of all the heart. A small girl follows her elderly grandfather out into the desert of the soul in search of a gathering of dervishes, and what a gathering it is! But getting there, like life itself, is the transformative part, without which the arriving itself can never happen. This tale within a tale within a tale is sure to delight fans of Sufism, mysticism, great epic tales, and really good music. I saw this film four times the first week it was in theaters. Chances are, a lot of DVD viewers will view and re-view this enchanting visual epiphany often.

"Arise O day, the atoms are dancing in molecular ecstasy...."
"Bab Aziz: The Price Who Contemplated His Soul" is a mix of many stories ...some of which I still wonder why they are there. I love the basic story of the blind grandfather and his granddaughter and the teaching of faith and the beauty of death. The poem...or song..."Arise O day, the atoms are dancing in molecular esctasy. Come my love-let us go join with them. " is worth watching the movie. It is mind expanding to see how many ways people have to worship (sufism, mysticism etc.)

Fantastic!!!!!!!
Great movie! I recommend it to anybody interested in Sufism and spirituality.Watch it more than once,full of symbols and deep meaning.
