What the creator captured
Davud Akhundzada explored the ancient Lalish Temple, the holiest site for the Yazidi people, which has stood for over 4,000 years. He was particularly struck by the specific rituals required for entry, such as carefully stepping over the marble threshold to show respect. He highlighted the deep connection between the religion and nature, noting the importance of the four elements and the 365 daily fires fueled by local olive oil.
