We tend to forget about important and eternal things in times hostility and manmade horror. This video is dedicated to benevolence, compassion and love. We want to say that constructive energy is more powerful and sustainable than destructive and militant reality. And against the odds man still returns to everlasting values. We believe that human nature aims exactly on this.
