Osman
Inicia-se com a história de um dervish de nome Baba Aziz e sua neta espiritual, Ishtar. Juntos eles percorrem o deserto à procura de uma grande reunião de dervishes que ocorre uma vez a cada 30 anos. Tendo a fé como único guia, os dois viajam por vários dias pela imensidão. Para ajudar a suportar a viagem, Baba Aziz passa a contar histórias do príncipe do deserto que contemplava sua alma ao lado de uma pequena piscina. Conforme a história é contada, os viajantes encontram outros viajantes que também contam suas histórias. Repleto de imagens maravilhosas e uma música belíssima, Nacir Khemir criou uma fabula inédita e encantadora, filmada nas areias da Tunisia e do Irã.
Khorma
In the arid Tunisian village of Bizerte, Khorma -- with his blonde-red hair and quirky habits -- is the town's kindly joke. His guardian is Bou Khaleb, the official announcer of births, deaths, and marriages. When the Bou mistakenly announces the death of a woman rather than her daughter's marriage, the film immerses us in the often-hilarious power struggles amongst the clerics of the "religion business".
