The video consists in a series of close-ups of people, against a blurred gray background. These people are happy, hopeful, smiling, confident. Everything is happening in slow motion, with a music track that elevates the spirit.

As we get closer to their faces, a splash a black viscous oil splashes on them, not just a little, but a constant stream of it. The music track changes drastically to an underwater explosion, followed by a full pressure pipe stream underwater, that will be increasing in intensity.

Their facial expressions change. This is not fun any more. As this happens they try to wipe-off the oil from their face, it just keeps pouring at a faster and faster pace, as black spots of the image start leaking into the full frame leaving it entirely black. The sound stops.

Title on black.

Millions have been affected by the oil spill

The close-ups fade in, now the oil has stopped flushing, and now each person is trying to take the petroleum off of their faces, not fully succeeding at it.

Title on black

It will take year to clean up and recover
