TEHRAN -- The Bosnian TV section of Iran’s Sahar Universal Network began airing a documentary on the Persian mystic and poet Molana Jalal ad-Din Rumi (1207-1273) on Sunday.
The documentary entitled “Urs” was made by Mohammad Talebani originally with an English voiceover, which was then translated for the Bosnian viewers of Sahar by Adel Haji Mohammadovic.
The documentary, which is composed of four 20-minute episodes, was shot in different cities of Iran and the Turkish city of Konya that is home to the mausoleum of Rumi.
The title of the documentary refers to the Urs of Rumi, an annual weeklong commemoration ceremony leading up to December 17, which is the anniversary of Rumi’s death.
