“Circle of Light”
The video centers on the festival of Diwali in the villages of Gujarat, where children go from home to home, collecting oil to light lamps. These lamps are then placed in a circle within the village square. The entire village gathers around this “circle of light” and celebrates the victory of light over darkness.
