Lamya's Poem (2021)
Can't stop rewatching it with my kids...
As a father my two girls (10 and 13) and I keep rewatching this movie. It is a poem in and of itself, much like Rumi's work, addressing the core ills of the world and how to heal the heart and nurture the light inside us all.
I was afraid my 10 year old girl would miss the metaphors, be scared or not get the allusions made. But there was enough happening that she stuck through until the end. On the second watching I was able to help her see some more inner beauty in each scene. And so with each watching our appreciation grows. The beautiful exposition of deep meanings in this movie had my eyes uncontrollably filled with tears. Perhaps that also had an effect on my children. I could not hide my reactions from them. Thank you for making this film!! It is a treasure.
I first watched it myself and I suggest all parents do the same. It is a great film to raise your child on. But decide for yourself as a parent when your child is ready to watch and understand it.
