- Lamps of Fire
- "Lamps of Fire" is a portrait on the unknown life and work of the Majorcan philologist, mystic and poet Joan Mascaró i Fornés, responsable for the translations from Sanskrit to English of the most important spiritual classics of the East such as the "Bhagavad Gita," the "Dhammapada," and of some of the major "Upanishads." Under the theme of «unity in diversity», Mascaró defended the need to establish a bridge of dialogue between civilizations. His ideas are still current in a world in conflict and crucial to understand the constant Western gaze on Eastern spirituality in the search of personal fulfillment.
