The Seventh Heaven

People enter into temptation and with true love, their hearts are purified and their souls soar into the seven skies. Bakr is a Sufi Tanoura dancer who falls in love with Hanan from his Ramadan audience and both give up prostitution. Tawhida, Bakr’s ex-wife, is encouraged by her son, Saad, to re-marry instead of being flirtatious, and he finds relief in freeing himself from a sinful relationship.
