Check out new song Faith, written this summer for the film 'Mary Sutherland Maxwell:un destino dorado' for the Spanish Amaranta film company. It features the fabulous Fleur Missaghian on vocals and is a setting of Mary Maxwells poem 'This is Faith'. The film is to be a portrait of Maxwell, otherwise known as Madame Ruhiyyih Rabbani, who was the Baha'i international community's leading dignatory for over forty years.
