Al-Ghazali: The Alchemist of Happiness (2004)
It's one-of-a-kind! - comment by Persian-speaker

As a Persian speaker it truly enjoyed Salazar's masterful portrayal of Ghazali. Managing to portray the Persian spirit with his magnificent camera-work (the graveyard scene) and a captivating plot (Ghazali's life), Salazar presents us with a wonderful drama documentary. I was also very impressed by the high level of the Persian that was spoken, which authentically reflects the Persian of Al Ghazali's time. Salazar's pick of Iranian actors is also very impressive, who all do a very good job. The costumes were also well made, and I definitely recommend this movie to anyone who wishes to taste the flavour of Oriental mystery.
