Description of idea
Describe your idea and concept of your work in relation to the festival outlines:
My idea is to point the paradox of the modern world, where we still speak of love as an ultimate value, but we also lead wars in the name of all those things that saint Paul dismissed as worthless 2000 years ago. So there is a nice looking girl (that would be me), and a lamp that symbolize womans body, fertility, and First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians, which is one of the most popular songs about love ever, and a nice music. As an opposite, they are covered with pictures of war and suffering.
What kind of communication approach do you use?
This is suggestive approach, it is made to be liked, to seduce, but to shock as well.
What are in your opinion concrete benefits to the society because of your communication?
This is suggestive approach, it is made to be liked, to seduce, but to shock as well.
What did you personally learn from creating your submitted work?
I believe this video can make people to think about if we really made progress in 2000 years, and remind them once again that love is the greatest
During my research, I learned that in 20th century millions people were killed, and in 21th century, already 4 millions died in wars in conflicts, most of them were lead in the name of gods love. I also discovered that the First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians is very popular on the internet, which brings hope in humanity.
Why is your work, GOOD communication WORK?
I think it is good, because is attractive, but honest and deep, and I believe people will recognize that, even though it is not in brilliant form.

I intent to implement it in television show that I am planing to do, about our cultural minds.
