After a decade of exile, a Syrian Sufi family sets out on a journey home. Forced to flee the war and rebuild their lives in Konya, they now return to their ancestral city of Aleppo with one dream: to revive their Mevlevihane and continue a spiritual tradition that has endured for centuries.
Featuring Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi’s granddaughter, Esin Çelebi, the film becomes a living bridge between past and present, between two cities once united by a shared cultural and spiritual heritage.
As the family steps into a city marked by loss, the whirling sema inside the surviving lodge transforms into a quiet yet powerful act of remembrance and resilience.
Come Back Again is a story about belonging, continuity, and the human need to return—not only to a place, but to one’s roots.
