I'd take a human life over a cultural site any day. But speaking of them I was invited to attend the Arba'een Pilgrimage last year which ends at the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain in Karbala. I hope I can go in 2020. Largest religious gathering in the world.

I did go there. I'm trying to make a film on Ibn Sina which we should discuss. But yes I saw all the sights. Deeply moved by the sites.

If you are making a work on Ib Sina, you shouldn't forget four things: he was educated by the elite Bateniees (Ismalites), he was a veteran wine drinker, he was as infamous as John Homes when it came to women, and lastly he absolutely hated the Iranian nationalism.

If there is something that can be called a hybrid of Timurid and Islamic elegance, this is it.
