The Okavango Blue of Botswana

The Light at the Start of Everything, Written by Iain Thomas

Agency: TBWA

Description

'The Light at the Start of Everything' is a visual poem written by Iain Thomas for The Okavango Blue of Botswana, a remarkably rare and extremely valuable, 20-carat Deep Blue Diamond. The film explores the stone’s origin and the magical unspoilt land to which it belongs. In contrast with the 3-billion-year existence of the stone, it reflects on the transient nature of our human lives, and reminds us that the light inside the diamond is the same light that exists in us. We all come from some eternal something. And The Okavango Blue is a way to hold that ‘something’ in your hands.
