1
00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:04.435
Stars shone long before our first word.

2
00:00:04.686 --> 00:00:08.041
Cosmogenesis: how the universe evolved.

3
00:00:08.291 --> 00:00:10.605
It expanded and cooled.

4
00:00:10.855 --> 00:00:13.008
Later, the first stars lit up.

5
00:00:13.259 --> 00:00:16.293
Within stars, carbon and oxygen formed.

6
00:00:16.544 --> 00:00:19.178
Their story lives on in life on Earth.

7
00:00:19.508 --> 00:00:22.463
Distant light reaches us across time.

8
00:00:22.713 --> 00:00:28.232
Here on Earth, morning touches
water, a tree, a human face.

9
00:00:28.562 --> 00:00:33.359
We look at the sky and see
how vast our shared home is.

10
00:00:33.770 --> 00:00:37.286
Rus’. A river, a forest,
the breath of the land.

11
00:00:37.616 --> 00:00:39.930
The familiar opens onto infinity.

12
00:00:40.180 --> 00:00:43.775
We inherited a world that
took shape long before us.

13
00:00:44.106 --> 00:00:45.698
What will we pass on?

14
00:00:46.029 --> 00:00:49.800
The Beginning of Light. From
the universe to humanity.

15
00:01:04.250 --> 00:01:07.398
Anthropogenesis. How did we become human?

16
00:01:07.528 --> 00:01:10.237
Our species shares a deep history.

17
00:01:10.407 --> 00:01:14.954
It arose in Africa. Human
evolution followed many branches.

18
00:01:15.204 --> 00:01:17.913
Our origin story is only the start.

19
00:01:18.163 --> 00:01:21.791
With every act, we
rediscover our humanity.

20
00:01:21.841 --> 00:01:24.549
When one shows and another tries.

21
00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:27.028
When experience becomes craft.

22
00:01:27.198 --> 00:01:29.826
When knowledge opens the future.

23
00:01:29.916 --> 00:01:34.904
Rus’ lives in family memory, in
speech and song, in a maker’s hands.

24
00:01:34.954 --> 00:01:38.901
We carry this story on when
we listen to each other.

25
00:01:38.951 --> 00:01:41.740
Let technology expand what we can do.

26
00:01:41.910 --> 00:01:45.338
Let human dignity remain
the measure of progress.

27
00:01:45.508 --> 00:01:48.376
Culture grows where knowledge is shared.

28
00:01:48.546 --> 00:01:52.810
From nature to consciousness. From
consciousness to responsibility.

29
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.480
We are here to stay. To
create. To protect life.

30
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:14.948
Theogenesis. Humanity asks about
the divine in many languages.

31
00:02:15.078 --> 00:02:19.027
Myth, faith and philosophy
offer different paths.

32
00:02:19.157 --> 00:02:23.826
Here we turn to the light we
recognize within ourselves.

33
00:02:23.956 --> 00:02:26.465
It becomes visible in what we do.

34
00:02:26.595 --> 00:02:27.825
Pause.

35
00:02:27.875 --> 00:02:30.104
Listen. Support.

36
00:02:30.194 --> 00:02:31.624
Preserve life.

37
00:02:31.713 --> 00:02:37.022
When strength protects and
knowledge helps, hope takes shape.

38
00:02:37.152 --> 00:02:39.501
Rus’ is part of our vast Earth.

39
00:02:39.631 --> 00:02:44.300
Ancestral memory can inspire
care for those who come after us.

40
00:02:44.430 --> 00:02:46.219
We do not have every answer.

41
00:02:46.269 --> 00:02:48.779
But we can already choose to create.

42
00:02:48.909 --> 00:02:51.938
The Beginning of Light lives on in us all.

43
00:02:52.028 --> 00:02:54.360
Reviving the Earth. Together.

44
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:03.580
The Beginning of Light. Kindness lives on.
