Before he became the world's most celebrated poet, Rumi was a respected scholar, teacher, and religious authority.

At thirty-seven, his life seemed settled.

Then he met a wandering mystic named Shams of Tabriz.

Their encounter would transform everything.

Rumi abandoned status, routine, and expectation to pursue a friendship that challenged his understanding of faith, love, loss, and the nature of the human soul. When Shams disappeared, the grief that followed became the source of some of the most influential poetry ever written.

This is the story of Rumi, Shams, transformation, and the strange relationship between heartbreak and awakening.

A Ministry of Mind production.
