The Bahá'ís

Westwind Pictures

2016

About: Through diverse perspectives of ordinary people and the insights of several social commentators and historians, this one-hour documentary, The Baha’is, sheds light on the teachings of this world religion and its global efforts to contribute to the betterment of communities. More than a profile of an established faith, the film explores how the Baha’i teachings present a response to the growing recognition that humanity is in need of a new concept of religion—one that transcends division, embraces universal participation, and offers a spiritual framework for unity and social transformation.

Baha’i communities, active in countries around the world, offer a glimpse into how these principles are put into practice across diverse social, economic, and cultural contexts. The individuals featured in the documentary represent a cross-section of humanity, speaking to the universal aspirations that this emerging vision of religion seeks to address. (from youtube.com)
