Depois da destruição da Assíria, os vitoriosos babilônicos ficaram com as terras baixas da Mesopotâmia, as quais transformaram-se na base do novo Império do Oriente Médio, no reino de Nabucodonosor (605-562 a.C.). As terras altas do leste passaram ao domínio dos medos. Em 550 a.C., Ciro, naquele tempo príncipe da Pérsia e vassalo dos medos, rebelou-se e derrotou o rei dos medos, juntando mais tarde medos e persas para fundar o primeiro Império Persa (ou Aquemênida). Com as campanhas seguintes somaram-se Ásia Menor, Babilônia, Afeganistão e, depois da morte de Ciro, o Egito, formando-se assim o maior e mais poderoso império conhecido até então.

Boas batalhas contra o mal foram travadas nesta épica história bíblica de heroísmo. Essa narrativa apresenta Mardoqueu (Robert Miano), um honesto judeu, e Hamã (Thaao Penghlis), um perverso primeiro-ministro que foge completamente ao controle do jovem rei persa Xerxes. Hamã é o segundo em autoridade depois do rei persa e quer ser venerado por todos. Mas Mardoqueu não se curva diante dele. Tal atitude aumenta a ira de Hamã e o faz criar planos terríveis contra esse líder judeu e seu povo. Resta, então, a Ester, prima de Mardoqueu, a difícil tarefa de conquistar o coração do rei e, ainda, de desmascarar Hamã e seus intentos de traição para salvar seu povo. Baseado na história bíblica de Ester, esta é uma bela adaptação que revela a grandiosidade de uma judia que demonstrou coragem, fé e obediência.

Rosie Ming, a young Canadian poet, is invited to perform at a Poetry Festival in Shiraz, Iran, but she’d rather be in Paris. She lives at home with her over-protective Chinese grandparents and has never been anywhere by herself. Once in Iran, she finds herself in the company of poets and Persians, all who tell her stories that force her to confront her past; the Iranian father she assumed abandoned her and the nature of Poetry itself. It’s about building bridges between cultural and generational divides. It’s about being curious. Staying open. And finding your own voice through the magic of poetry. Rosie goes on an unwitting journey of forgiveness, reconciliation, and perhaps above all, understanding, through learning about her father’s past, her own cultural identity, and her responsibility to it.
