Thank you all for watching!

As a precursory comment, I fully believe there are symbols and moments I missed; others I caught but could not define or word properly, so I removed my attempts to discuss them (it was mostly word salad). The video was already quite long 🙃 That said, I welcome the discussion that I am certain will come, and I hope to make a future video to dive further into this masterpiece from Dimash. So please - watch with grace, as this was one of the most difficult reactions I’ve ever done! Dimash’s work here was so eloquent, the film so excellent, the symbolism so interesting, that it’s simply impossible to catch it all in one go. That’s the joy of these videos, and I can’t wait to return to this one in a few weeks and discuss it on a deeper level!
Also - I’m sorry for the pauses at the end; I was blocked several times and had to pause the video more.
We would love to see you doing another episode for this MV.
I can't wait to hear your thoughts. Some things in the video confused me. But overall I love the song, and the core message. I'm glad you'll revisit it after opening a discussion about it. There's a lot to unpack, and one time watch is not enough to deep dive and notice some details.
Also, hope you're feeling better.
This mv it's so deep that really deserves a reaction (first time) + analisys after rewatching
I hope you are feeling well.
I've been waiting for your analysis and happy to watch multiple videos as this is soooo deep. I know you would have really emersed yourself in all aspects. 👍👍👏👏👏🙆♀️🇦🇺
@cedricgegel please being tissues this might make you cry.
You, not knowingly,... because you were trying to avoid "copywriting strikes" paused and red poetry and interjected your thoughts,... gave a completely different texture to a reaction video.
You just created the single best reaction video...EVER.
I know this type of reaction takes so much time, ...but I hope you can do this style of reaction video again.
Wow!!
That was why I added the poetry - there was just something about this that lead me there. Thank you so much for your kind, kind words.
This is subtitled "Requiem” but it is also a vision and a call to action. Dimash is steeped in sacred music and has a deep understanding of the mystic teachings and symbolism of the major world religions as well as Kazakh shamanism. It is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14, 2022, at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions in Kazakhstan. The written statement at the end of the video is directly from the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed jointly on February 4, 2019, by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad el-Tayeb. Dimash met and spoke with both men at the September meeting.
Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel. I only touch on some of what struck me in the symbolism. The music is a dissertation all by itself. The pendant is an interesting element. It is a gnomon from a maritime compass sundial. This triangular blade is attached to the sundial, casting a shadow on the sundial while the perforated pinhole projects the image of the sun onto the dial. It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. (Thank you, Snarky Tart for that information). In the MV, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon, but distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through, as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers.
Contemporary music is also present: With the phrase "We have passed the moment of Imagine," Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must act and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way.
The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment, we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war.
The Piper's call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let's remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start the war, who do not support the war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against?
The burning sign "Waldenberg" is a reference to the end of WWII when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht to end the war in April 1945. As a native German, I have seen the aftermath of war as I was born a few years later when much of Germany was still in rubble. Waldenburg is only 28 miles from my hometown and was completely destroyed as you can see from the picture. Many of the dead in those bombed out buildings were women and children. The good guys defeated evil but at what price? iowaculture.gov/history/education/educator-resources/primary-source-sets/world-war-ii/american-troops-move-through
The imagery of the denouement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant that creates a sacred space, reminding us that death and life are both sacraments and are interwoven. Dimash's vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. When Dimash’s character decides to revenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storm of his emotions that buffet the pilgrims. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the "sacred womb" of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy, and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war and suffering by choosing life. Dimash's scream of “we’re choosing life” is that of giving birth: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity.
The blowing of the shofar signals God's mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right: in the Zohar, the book of Jewish mysticism, it says: “When human beings repent of their sins, they blow the shofar on earth. Its sound ascends On High and awakens the heavenly shofar, and so mercy is aroused and judgment is removed.”
Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash's character in the form of his son becomes a spiritual guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage,race, and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect.
Carl Jung wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
This is what Dimash has done with this work; he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time.
We don’t have to wait. We can start right now. As the hymn tells us: "Let there peace in the world, and let it begin with me." Baraka Bashad.
Спасибо Вам огромное. каждое слово правда. 🙏🙏💔💔Эта работа Димаша настолько великая и осознанно зрелая. что потребуется немало времени для ее понимания и осмысления. Димаш- гений .
I wonder why Dimash didn't make it obvious that it was another character at the end? when he plays both the father and son, it's hard for the viewer to know it's not the same charecter. he KNEW that there would be disagreements. he knew there would be confusion. and that the message of the son choosing the good path, would be lost. his shirt also almost looks like it's stained with blood. why does it look like this? why is dimash being confusing? why didn't he use a different person, to make it obvious that its another charecter? curious about your thoughts. thanks for the comment, it's very good.
Thanks for this. Very interesting read.
@@mayganphynix8267 My thought is that he does want us to think, he does not want to make things easy and super obvious. He calls in this video to everything in us: heart, soul, mind. My first response was emotional, the video was a shot through the heart and a punch in the face. Cried all the time, was left in shock, and only several hours later could watch it again. Only several views later was able to unravel the story.
I also think that "We have have passed the moment of Imagine" shows the contrast of two different worldviews: the religious vs the no-religious one. In imagine the desirable peace comes from erasing individuality and differences: no countries, no heaven or hell, no religion, no posessions, people living "just for today". Lennon itsef described Imagine, which was took at the time he wrote it as a peace anthem, as "anti-religious, anti-nationalistic, anti-conventional, anti-capitalistic". He even joked ""It's virtually the communist manifesto".
Dimash, on the other side, is a very religious man, and he is proposing other way: there will always be differences and diversity, we need to learn to embrace those with acceptance and respect, that is the only possible way to peace.
Absolutely shocking!!! I cried from start to finish!!! Dimash is working hard for peace. Let's support his work by regularly visiting his page and sharing his videos with friends and acquaintances. Well done Dimash!!
From my first time viewing Dimash, I Am Singer.... I only watched it because I kept seeing on the suggested lists on the right of the screen, this guy Dimash that kept getting hailed as the greatest singer ever, or the Best sing of all time. I figured it was some kids favorite singer and nothing more than hooraying their favorite singer. So I watched it just to get it out of my curiosity. BAMB ~! I got hooked and stunned all at once. SOS blew my mind on what a singer is actually capable of doing.
That said, it's been like that for most of us Dears, we are so lucky to have discovered this human, and just look where he is taking all of us. This is no egotistical journey of one person, Dimash is trying to lead and show the whole world, All of us, to a much better place in life. At the end, when he puts on the shepherds garb, he looks to me just how I now view him, a shepherd or prophet leading us into our next path on this planet. This is so powerful, and Dimash goes out on a limb to bring this epic song/video to the world.
I knew it!!! You had to react to this! It was for you!! I am looking forward to your reaction eagerly. As an actor and filmmaker you are going to feel very comfortable reacting to this piece of art. Greetings from Costa Rica, a country that believes in dialogue and tolerance, with no army since 1948 and "awarded the peace novel prize in 1987 for a plan designed to put an end to the cruel civil wars that were devastating Central America"!!! ¡Pura Vida! 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷
how do I move to your country and live there?
@@mayganphynix8267 ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍
I don’t think it’s Dimash that comes back, I think it’s Dimash’s son who was born in the movie.
Dimash worked in this Project for 3 years. He composed the music, wrote the script and produced the MV. A very expensive project, 300 peoples worked in this video.Thanks for reacting👍💚💛💚💛🇧🇷🇧🇷
Let us enjoy this movie while Dimash is in the plane on his way to Dubai to serve as a jury in a fashion show.
Hey Cedric, thank you for your reaction to Dimash's new MV! Did you know that Dimash received a medal from the Pope Francis recently? The Pope visited Kazakhstan in September this year to attend a peace meeting of world religious leaders held in Kazakhstan. And the Pope Francis presented a special medal to Dimash for his merit as an Ambassador of Peace through his Art/Music. In fact, Dimash should be given a Nobel Prix!
Hi from Scotland. A Dimash song where almost no-one talks about the unbelievable singing. That's talent.
This Painful Masterpiece is Dimash's soul pleading to the World. I have no words, as my heart,
body and soul are aching for Dimash. I believe that Dimash Qudaibergen has thousands of
souls in him. How can one young man be so in tune in everything he does. His passion for the
world, his country, his parents, his siblings, his friends and especially his music is
extraordinary!!! We are all so blessed to be a part of his outstanding journey!!! I'm so proud to be a Dear!!!❤️❤️💐💐
Yo también siento orgullo de ser Dear, él cambió completamente nuestra vida con su voz y su enorme corazón.
This song is perfection both emotionally and vocally. To me, and I'm sure to many, it's the best thing anyone has ever sung and recorded, and the most valuable. There may still be questions about why so many people believe that Dimash is the best? I don't know, maybe only a robot will be emotionless after watching and listening to this video. This is a masterpiece of the century that will remain in history.
Another phenomenal performance by Dimash and another incredibly illuminating analysis and reaction from you. Your skills and experience gives us a viewing experience and clarity of analysis that no other reactor provides. I wish you complete success, yet I fear that happening will take away this wonderful experience you provide us.
As long as I can make these videos, I will. Thank you so much for your kind comments.
When Dimash says that we haven't seen anything yet then you have to take notice.
I would say the live performance was even better, especially the climax and the percussion during the last section
Согласна. Я была на концерте и была потрясена! Димаш вживую и его Голос - это за гранью мыслимого
Our Dimash is very vocal about the futility and human cost of war. Qazakstan only achieved independence 30 years ago, Dimash is only 28. He knows the history of his homeland and of current and past heroes of the conflict. He detests war and has stated that wars are always between two people not two nations.
He has stated that he is 'only a singer' so all he can do is 'use his voice'. This is Dimash's humility and him using his voice.
This was a project 3 years in the making on and off in-between commitments in many countries and his homeland not to mention his concerts of which there has been four in just this year alone.
The emotion, heart and soul is real and I believe this was a way for him to vent his frustration at current world events.
Director Alina Veripya is second to none in her field and portrayed everything magnificently.I believe she also directed ‘Okay’ for Dimash which was a great video.
The Story of One Sky is an absolute mind blowing masterpiece and deserves unrivalled recognition from all corners of the earth. This makes you sad, cry and smile but leaves you questioning the direction we as a humans are travelling.
Dimash promised something epic and that was a colossal understatement. He delivered as always. ❤💕
FYI he sang it live in his phenomenal concert in Almaty on last Friday.
I can assure you that it was one of the most powerful musical YT moments I have ever lived. All the concert was incredible but how he performed this song is beyond world.
And the day after, when he presented the video during a meeting with his fans, the full stadium was in a total silence…
Dimash is so more than the best vocalist in the world: he is an old sage, an old soul, in a young man.
And his incredible voice is his instrument to convey his message.
This man is a gift to the world.
Finally someone who can understand all details will react to it 🙌 Cedric always have the best eyes to see what we don't see
Really there aren't enough words to describe Dimash. It was the most impressive, most emotional, most meaningful music video I've ever seen in my life.I literally burst into tears.😥😥
I have never known an artist who delivered a performance with as much passion and intensity as Dimash..
I feel extremely proud to be called a Dear..I really loved the music video and the song.. It's a masterpiece.But I can't handle with Dimash's underwater screams and death scene even though I know it's just the video.
These scenes destroyed me.And I felt his screams in my heart when his daughter died.It was very hard to watch these shots,this scene completely broke me..
На концерте в Алматы Димаш уходил в такой ультразвук , что летучие мыши сходили с ума и просто бились в окна соседних со стадионом зданий. Мой сын работает в одном из них. Он даже сделал фото , как летучая мышь упала к ним на подоконник. Наверное эти зверьки слышали то , что неподвластно человеческому уху
Серьёзно, ничего себе 😲😄👍👍👍
Me encantó
А Алма-Аты это же город? Там летают летучие мыши? В городе-миллионике…в центре…, в этой смоковной яме…,, или уже народ уезжает, а мыши прилетают👍😊👏🎪
@@user-en5zl3vp6z , летучие мыши есть везде. Особенно если есть чердаки и подвалы. Но меня удивило обилие летучих мышей и Комаров на мальдивских островах. Ну как комары долетели до них ? В океане? Их травят , травят , но меньше не становится.
@@rozar604 на островах меня мыши совсем не удивляют. В Алма-ате такая экология, Что люди не выдерживают. Вечный смог - летучие существа - первые жертвы.
Hi Cedric :) So glad to see you :) I left a link + a translation for the growl words at the bottom of my very long comment, if you are curious :)
The film is based on a story written by Dimash, with his own screenplay. (He worked on this piece for the last 3 years). The director Alina Veripya told about the creation of the music video for the new song : The clip is divided into several parts. The first one is about childhood. The main character and his 2 friends are connected by childhood stories and symbols of eternal friendship. One day the friend saves the Protagonist when he drowns. However, there is already competition in this children’s story, as the boys are in love with one girl, and she chooses one. The second experiences a kind of psychological breakdown and transfers the children’s problems into the adult world of totalitarianism and struggle. By becoming president, the Antagonist carries the idea of a saving war:
“Only war will lead us to peace. Only the strongest can find love in their hearts. You must be strong enough to give the world freedom. A world where every city, every home is one. We will lead all who are ready to begin this new life. Anyone who resists has no place with us. I choose freedom. The world is open before me, and I want to give it to you. War for the people is the way to unity.”
The main character also speaks of unity, of peace, but through the lens of kindness and love.
While fighting, he is confused, he is in shock, but he has to save his family - his pregnant wife (the very girl from his childhood) and his daughter. Once home, he is horrified by the picture of the dead and realizes that his family is also dead. After surviving this drama, he moves on to the antagonist to seek revenge.
However, the Protagonist’s wife survives with the help of people who know that she is the one who must give birth to a special boy who can save the world. These are people of different nationalities and faiths who have united for peace.
A parallel line of pilgrims are people of different religions, walking the hard path to some place of power where they could unite and discover the Heavenly Eye that would illuminate the world. By uniting, they create a common energy in which the protagonist’s son is born, as Hope and Faith for the Better. Their journey is a symbol of faith in general, because it always goes through trials. When we go to the truth, we go through certain lessons and our way to God is difficult, but only possible if we come together.
*This clip is not about war, it’s about peace. War here is a means of expressing the contrast of what happens when we lose love for one another. It is about the call to unite, to stop dividing each other along national, social, religious lines in order to preserve life, love, friendship, and the land for our children.*
(source : dimashnews)
"Dimash Qudaibergen’s 12-minute work is dedicated to the unity of people on our planet. We are all divided into races, nations and religions, but we are all children of one planet and live under one sky. Life is the highest value.
No sacred book calls for the destruction of people. We must learn to be friends; it is impossible for a few adults to cause millions of children to suffer. The future of our planet, the future of people is in our hands, let there be peace in the world.
We are children of one Home, one Earth and one Heaven."
P.S. The pilgrims part is still in present day, not in ancient times. It speaks of the necessity of unity in service of Life, the highest value.
The Protagonist dies, his daughter died as innocent casualty of war, (possibly his wife dies in childbirth ?), the Antagonist dies. The son (of the Protagonist and his wife) survives with the help of people of all faiths, and in the last frame, he goes on, together with the pilgrims of all faiths, on the path of Kindness, Hope and Faith for the Better.
--------------
Dear Cedric, I was at the concert in Almaty, where Dimash performed this on stage (can`t describe how it was to be there), and I thought you might like a close-up fancam of it : ruclips.net/video/_bxAZIyiegI/видео.html
(it`s the last third of the song, from the vocalise onward, till the stunning end ; you get to see his bewildered face at the end, and see all the heart he poured into this ; he also says a word to the crowd when he is done)
--------------
Translation for the growl words he says while his character hugs his daughter that died : it`s in kazakh, and the words I believe they are : "Adam kerve omir şol" - "The life of Man (Adam) is like this" (behold the life of Man ; such is Man`s life ; full of pain ; this is what man is capable of, making his life full of pain, with no winners and losers ; everybody loses when love is gone and we turn to war)
--------------
Completely besides the point - mentioning it just for technical cinematographic reasons : apparently the video was more expensive than Michael Jackson`s "Scream".
Much more important is that Dimash actually performed the song The Story of One Sky for the very very first time at the Seventh Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, which was held in Astana (Nur-Sultan) in mid-September. One of the listeners was Pope Francis, who later met with Dimash and presented him with a commemorative medal.
Okay interesting, i read a completely different translation for the kazakh bit, from a Kazakh dear: "Man is the caravan and life is the path". Seems i will need to ask someone again when i have the chance. If it turns out I gave wrong info to you earlier, Cedric, i'm deeply sorry. Should always fact check and double check...
Checked with another Kazakh dear. The translation to Adam keruyen, omir zhol is Man is the caravan and life is the path which is an actual Kazakh proverb. Seems people have heard it in 2 different ways.
Okay, updating.... Another Kazakh dear saying it is definitely Adam keruyen, omir zhol
And that the meaning is that life is a long and dangerous trip, one must be careful.
@@M.W.F.1 Thank you for this :)
The ultimate meaning is similar - "The life of man is like this" while showing the pain of war and the danger of wrong choices (Adam kerve ömir şol) --- and "Life is a long and dangerous trip, one must be careful" (Adam kerwen ömir zhol), again, in the midst of war and the consequences of wrong choices, and on the verge of the troublesome choice of revenge.
So I didn`t mess up that much :)
I knew we could count on you ❤️
His whole performance in this both vocally and visually was both shocking and brilliant.
I found myself in tears when he is screaming over the body of his dead daughter.
Btw did you know that Dimash wrote the screenplay too?
The Dimash at the end is his son, the baby born at the latter part of the MV, a new generation who will lead people to unity and a better tomorrow. We know this because of dialogue from the director and also because the casting call went out for actors to play Dimash's wife, daughter and son in the MV.
How can you not love such a wholesome artist with a beautiful heart and soul? Dimash’s song is so powerful and compelling… I’m still recovering…
Dimash has found his calling as an artist: presenting his Kazakh culture to the world, but also spreading compassion, love, respect, and unity through his voice and music.
One should strive for peace and understanding among different peoples, cultures, and religions so that there’s mutual respect in spite of our differences, hence the necessity of an open dialogue to solve conflicts instead of choosing war. I admire his strong conviction, courage, and beautiful soul.
I hope that his powerful message of peace and unity will be heard all across the world. Being a Dear is an honor.
Thank you so much Cedric for your genuine appreciation of Dimash! Likewise, I’m so glad that I stumbled upon you thanks to Dimash: you’re yourself quite the talented artist and also possess a wholesome personality. 💙
P.S.: Cedric, I’m looking forward to your thorough analysis and thoughts on the masterpiece that is “The Story of One Sky”. Cheers!
Heartbreakingly magnificent! Powerful portrayal! Brutally honest in showcasing how war rages against a life of peace in all regions of the world. This video brings one to the brink of despair yet shows that life endures and hope lives on from generation to generation! Profound performance by Dimash and all those who participated in the artistry of this production! The first lyrics are so telling "Can't believe what is happening at all PIPER'S crazy, we are bound to fall" seems to me to relate to a Pied Piper leading others astray! Showing his immense grief going to his home and finding his household, his daughter all dead. As he dies his son is born. You see the baby wearing the mother's sign of love and life and then he is shown grown into the very image of his father wearing the same necklace walking toward a dawning new light! My soul cried! Dimash is amazingly gifted and has an understanding of love and life beyond his years! You are so very observant and articulate in your reactions! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!
Dimash has some serious acting skills, I was transfixed.
You know Cedric is putting some dedication when he's browsing through books for reference at 6AM
Greetings Cedric. great analysis as always. Here I leave you a bit of context, the final character is the son of Dimash born during the war and saved by several people who see him as a symbol of unity between peoples. He honored his dead father by trying to bring and unite all races, cultures and religions to a place where they can live together as brothers and in peace. The name "Piper" has two similar meanings: The first is a reference to the legend of the "Piper of Hamelin" who was tasked with hypnotizing the city's rats and drowning them in the sea. But the piper, without pay, hypnotized the entire population of the city and led them to death! It is therefore a seductive message that leads to death! The Other Meaning tells the true story of a World War II battle where crazy Canadian soldier Bill Millin, nicknamed "Mad Piper", played the bagpipes at the front, dressed in a "kilt", while his companions were killed. . ! The sound of the harmonica served to muffle the shots and motivate the comrades and became a symbol of the "madness of war". We are very grateful to God and destiny for the fact that such talented people as Dimash have come into our lives and are a great example of modesty, courtesy and respect, despite their great popularity! This is not even a clip, it is a whole film that was created throughout Dimash's creative activity, the meaning of which he wants to convey to each viewer and will be different for each one, but anyway, we all walk under the same sky. Greetings from Panama.
I was waiting for your reaction so much, cuz
you as a filmmaker, screenwriter, actor can appreciate it even more than vocal coaches, music reactors...20 hour and I will see how Dimash blows your mind topping everything what you've seen before! And I'm hoping for an 1h long reaction at least, cuz there are so many things going on! So many details, layers, obvious & subtle symbolism....aaaa...it is not just eargasm, as his voice & music always is, but eyegasm but mindgasm, and touches & shakes hearts and souls.. .Dimash is a genius, an magician, nothing less....
He is the composer, screenwritee, lead actor, beside his out of this world singing...and he has a message...
How can he be so insanely gifted, multitalented, intelligent, wise, loving kind, compassionate, selfless, spiritual, amazing human being? We knew this before, but still...he shows more & more from himself, and he said, we saw nothing yet ...
He deserves Grammy, Nobel Peace Prize and everything!
The whole world need to know him ( should know him and they need him without knowing it)
Have you read the description under the video? His thoughts...
Since you already watched the mv - fantastic masterpiece mini movie - , I recommend you to read the short article on dimashnews.com with the director words, talking about what they wanted to convey ( I think they did it excellently)
Cedric, there are so many references that apply to all nations. Dimash has such an insightful perspective and a deep rooted respect for all. Pure masterpiece and genius. Prayers for peace from Canada.
Esperaba tu reacción...Dimash nos ha regalado un enorme mensaje de paz transformado en una Obra Maestra....3 años tardó en escribir y producir esta obra maravillosa ( tanto la música completamente y también el guion del mv que es completamente su creación ) Con solo 28 años y es capaz de remover el alma y la conciencia de milesa traves del arte.Que afortunados somos de compartir era con él y disfrutar toda su genialidad.Saludos desde Chile🇨🇱❤

Седрик, Вы замечательный.Ваши реакции настолько глубоки.Какое удовольствие Вас слушать.Хочу сказать, что в клипе все имеет глубокий смысл.И тот ,,брелок,, который ДИМАШ в детстве , надевает на шею, это часть светового навигатора, через которую проходит солнечный свет( отверстие).Но работает он только, когда прямой.Стоит его согнуть и функция нарушается.Поэтому, мы видим , что ДИМАШ и девочка, проводники света.Другой мальчик согнул его и никогда не носил на шее.Уже сейчас стало понятно, кто будет нести свет, а кто тьму. И мы видим, что этот символ в искаженном виде, становится шевроном.Я об этом прочитала у одного очень глубокого, человека из Германии.
С волнением жду Вашей реакции, это фантастическое произведение. Димаш заслуживает за него -Нобелевской Премии Мира
Эта премия давно себя дискредитировала! Как и Оскар и все другие кинопремии! Главная премия - это признание народами всего мира!
шнобелевской
Зная, насколько Димаш искренен и великодушен, великосердечен, - лучшей наградой для него были бы осознанность людей и прекращение войн ❤❤❤
К сожалению эту премию получают те, кто за войну.
Symbols: The piece that is hanging from the wire is a gnomon. It is a piece used in sundials and the sun passes through the circle producing a shadow that indicates the right path.
Note that the friend did not put the necklace on his neck and when bending the gnomon, right at the beginning, he stopped pointing the right way and was no longer useful. Throughout the entire MV he has the piece but never wears the necklace.
The gnomon is the key piece throughout the entire MV. It points the right way, the way of tolerance and peace that is used in the end in the character of hope that is the son of Dimash.
The military man who is the friend who saved Dimash's character in the beginning is the crazy Piper. Based on a medieval legend he presented a solution to the problems. A village was full of mice and out of nowhere Piper appeared with a miracle solution to solve the villagers' problems. By destroying the mice, he made all the children in the village disappear. This part is important because we must not believe the propaganda of these people who say they will solve problems but then do more harm than good.
The only way is union, tolerance for difference and believing that we can, together, follow the right path for all humanity.
Un video no alcanza para hablar todo lo que se vió, con el tiempo las respuestas vendrán ❤️
Every time I see the procession, I feel that it is the procession of the dead. We all walk that path at the end of our lives. Some may be distracted from the end path, but we all start the same way and end the same way. The choices we make in between can have dramatic implications on others.
Спасибо большое, я рада,что у вас наладилось со здоровьем ,не болейте, радуйте нам своим профессиональным видением.Спасибо,вы всегда так тепло и с любовью отзываетесь о нашем любимом Димаше.Клип заставляет нам задуматься,о том что мы хотим в этому мире?Почаще выходите в эфир, приятно смотреть в ваши добрые глаза и улыбку.Большой привет с Казахстана.
You can feel it, you can experience its pain, it is a heartbreaking moment, Dimash, in a plea full of sadness and emotion, mobilized all our hidden feelings....some may find it impossible to see....but to face fears first there is to recognize them, to look in the mirror, to be able to heal a wound in medicine you have to revive it, Dimash touched our soul where it hurts, exposed human miseries and of course it causes pain but sometimes it is necessary to feel the pain and express it to heal .. His message is one of love, his message is a great call for peace through tolerance and respect
With sincere gratitude, I thank you for going through so much excessive hassle to bring us your valuable analysis of this MV/film/song. Honestly, if Yoola perseveres in attacking sincere reactors who are bringing nothing but respect and a high skill level to analyzing Dimash's work? We should go all Soldier Dimash on their backside, mount an army of peaceful prayer warriors, and trudge uphill to storm their castle, demanding that they cease causing ill will and enmity. Sure, there are some youtubers who shouldn't be reacting to Dimash's work, who bring nothing but begging for subscribers; but there are some, like Cedric, whose expertise Dimash's team couldn't hope to buy, and who also contribute greatly to the understanding and education of Dimash's own fan community. There's such a distinct difference between these two calibers of youtube channels, easily discerned. Dimash's work deserves copyright police that can make that easy distinction, rather than just carpet bombing everything into oblivion.
Cedric, it is always such a GIFT when you give us your brilliant, in depth, knowledgeable break downs of Dimash's works. I hope Dimash sees your reaction. (He would want you on his team). Thank you for all the work you did to bring us your reaction. It's as if Dimash gives a puzzle - and then people like you solve many of the pieces. Because of your training in filmmaking you see many details that most people don't catch. It's hard to believe that a 28 year old man could even conceive this short film - much less, bring it to life. Thanks again!
Мы ждали вашей реакции и ваши мысли на этот шедевр Димаша, где Он непосредственно принимал участие как сценарист и артист. Вы всегда замечаете многие аспекты в визуальном и музыкальном плане. Ваша искренняя оценка и ваш всесторонний взгляд импонирует нам . Да , Седрик , этот мини - фильм заставляет всех задуматься о жизни вокруг нас. В финале Он поёт « МЫ ВЫБИРАЕМ ЖИЗНЬ !» Этот крик и вопль души на разрыв сердца виден и на концерте в Алматы с фанкамеры. Он кричит нам всем исправить свои ошибки , бороться против войны за мир на земле, не быть равнодушными - ведь за все наши грехи будет спрос ! Димаш - гениальный вокалист, артист, музыкант, композитор и создатель шедевра, к которому я думаю шёл всю жизнь - поэтому считает его самым дорогим видеофильмом. С раней молодости Димаша тревожила эта тема « ВОЙНЫ И МИРА» . Я уверенна , что Димаш послан нам Богом как тот избранный младенец , что повёл всех людей к свету ! Димаш объединяет людей , изменяя наши жизни , в лучший Мир без войн и насилия ! Чем больше людей услышат Димаша , примут Его идеи и воззвания к Миру и единению всех народов , тем быстрее наступит лучшая жизнь ! Желаю вам быть здоровым всегда ! Мирного всем неба!
Возможно, это не фильм, к которому Димаш шёл всю жизнь, а только начало)
Thanks for the great reaction! Dimash nurtured this idea for three years. But recent events have accelerated this process. Dimash is very deeply worried about the fact that two peoples close to him are destroying each other in a senseless and useless war. That is why he is so sincere in his suffering and pain in this clip.
Thank you for the reaction!
Note: i believe Dimash in the end is the grown up Baby wearing the same necklace and walking towards peace so it's Dimash's son!
The old generation just died from hatred and war
Согласна с вами... Это произведение Димаша заставляет, предлагает о многом задуматься...Это очень глубокая философия...
Димаш миротворец...! Одна из первых его песен - "Война и мир" и он продолжает эту тему... Думаю, что и дальше будет продолжать делать это... Это уже жизненная философия и он имеет возможность предложить ее миру!
Дорогой Седрик, ваши реакции это удивительное путешествие в глубины художественных смыслов не только вокальных , но и визуальных и концептуальных. Огромное спасибо за это удовольствие!
Как хорошо сказано, даа посмотрела и еще раз наполнилась Красотой, Совершенством и Величайшей Сутью и Смыслом этого Бомбического Произведения Искуства от Гениального Мастера Димаша! Седрик, Благодарю! 🙏🌹
Dear Cedric, I was waiting for your reaction. Thank you so much for amazing insight. I think the scene of drowning (with the COSMIC screaming) means that Dimash's soul is coming back to life in the amniotic fluid of a Mother giving birth to Dimash's son and incarnation of Messiah in the same person. Means also that Dimash's battle for peace would be continued forever in His each incarnation: "We're choosing life!" This story, song and every piece of the film is epic. Dimash is a Genius!
Without a doubt the best reaction video to this phenomenal work by Dimash, in terms of your wealth of knowledge and experience, this was a pleasure to watch, if somewhat haunting. Dimash is otherworldly to me and yet so humble and passionate in his belief that we should all choose life rather than following leaders hellbent on destruction. I hear you, Dimash, and I choose life!
Así es Cédric, Dimash no es sólo un gran artista,es una persona profundamente comprometida por el bienestar de la humanidad y nos llama a la reflexión y a la acción a través de su arte,que elijamos la vida en cada acto de nuestras vidas y así evitamos la violencia que como ondas del agua del estanque al caer una piedra, incluya cada vez a más personas que puedan elegir la vida ,osea el amor y paz como forma de vida.Grande Dimash,te acompañaremos en este camino.
Thanks for your Dante dialogue, Cedric. And the words of hope. Like a comforting balm. I think it has happened to all of us that at one point the pain is so desperate that we feel the need to take a breath. Dimash spared nothing, shouted everything, pierced our hearts. Because this is not a hypothetical story. It's the truth. It is happening today. Boy Piper and Boy Dimash represent those two countries that until yesterday were friends, brothers, and today they are confronted, with fire and tears... Thank you Cedric, we needed those words of hope. God bless us all with the lasting peace our world so badly needs.
Очень глубокий и профессиональный анализ всего произведения. Очень ждала Вашу реакцию - как всегда очень профессионально!!! Спасибо🌹🌹🌹
Вам крепкого здоровья и берегите себя!!!
Димаш самый лучший из лучших🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
Благодарю Вас за такой подробный обзор этого короткометражного фильма.
Я была впервые на концерте и слушала это произведение. А потом на фанвстрече с Димашем.
Это шедевр. До сих пор не отпускают эмоции и пережитые чувства после просмотра этого минифильма . Ждём следующих реакций 👍❤️🙏🇰🇿
Thank you so much for your professional explanations and wonderful response to this amazing drama. Also thank you for a nice time here, it has been a great pleasure to watch the music video with you. Take care😊
Beautiful analysis, thank you ❤️ There is such a lot to be said about this, but one thing I find fascinating is the theme of rebirth that he continues to explore. The baby can be the hero reborn, but also the dictator. What will he choose to be in this lifetime? I'm fascinated with how he ties it in with the Stranger myth. The traveller who finds a new land where he nonetheless has been before. During the Almaty performance of Stranger we saw a traveller (Olzhas) find his own instrument buried under the sands of time. And here we see a pilgrim (Dimash) being & remembering someone he has been before. It's breathtaking how he takes on the big themes of death & rebirth, free will, destiny. Look at how little drowning Dimash has the cord of his shorts resemble the umbilical cord. The depth of him, I just can't. Where will he take us next on his vision quest?
Thank you for your incredible reaction to our Kazakh hero Dimash! I like your attitude to the work of Dimash. We love him very much, we appreciate him, we are proud, he is the best! I feel your intellectual creative nature, there are not many people like you. Thank you for your heart, health to you and your loved ones!
Wow! Vídeo espetacular! Intenso e profundo! Uma obra prima completa!
Música simplesmente extraordinária do nosso Príncipe Dimash!
Letra emocionante e incrível com uma grande mensagem!
Orquestra e instrumentos tradicionais incríveis!
Dimash simplesmente extraordinário e repleto de emoção! Transcendental! Incrível!
Dimash é um cantor magnífico, um roterista espetacular e um ator fantástico!

Gracias por reaccionar a tanta y magnifica obra de arte magistral ...Dimash se paso mas lo amamos sus dears ahora mas y mas desde🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱 Chile un cariñoso saludo para ti un abrazo
The name "Piper" has two similar meanings: The first is a reference to the legend of the "Piper of Hamelin" who had the task of hypnotizing the city's rats and drowning them in the sea. But the flutist, unpaid, hypnotized the entire population of the city and took them to their death! It is, therefore, a seductive message that leads to death! The other meaning tells the true story of a World War II battle where insane Canadian soldier Bill Millin, called "Mad Pipper", played bagpipes at the front, dressed in a "kilt", while his comrades were killed. ! The sound of the harmonica served to muffle the shots and motivate the companions and became a symbol of the "madness of war"!
Y Piper aquí es el amigo de la infancia de Dimash
The 'dimash' at the end was the soldier's son, who is walking towards the light with other people.
As an artist, Dimash is in some way daring us to action by provoking us with this MV. As the lyric says, the moment for "Imagine" has passed. Thank you, thank you, thank you Dimash.
Дорогой наш друг, Седрик! Спасибо Вам за человечность, профессионализм, эрудированность, Ваши разборы произведений нашего несравненного Димаша, для меня всегда, как откровение, я далека от искусства кинематографии, но, благодаря Вам, понимаю. какую работу проделал Димаш, как сценарист и актер - он ,действительно, многогранен. Еще раз спасибо, не болейте, будьте счастливы и успешны, Вы этого заслуживаете, с уважением, из Казахстана.
Очень ждала вашу реакцию)). 🙏 благодарю за прекрасную работу)). Уже 4-й день думаю о реквием от Димаша…. В этой работе я вижу боль наших дней как два некогда самых дружных государства попали под влияние фашистского ада😢….
Молю Всевышнего что бы он остановил весь этот ужас 🙏🙏🙏
Да, МЫ ВЫБИРАЕМ ЖИЗНЬ!!! Никто в этой войне не станет победителем НИКТО!!!
Hi Cedric, after watching Dimash's new Video "One Sky" i had many different emotions to say the least..
I needed someone brilliant to react and interpret this Masterpiece,and of course you came to my mind
immediately.You blow me away every single time that you react to Dimash! Thank you.
I hope that you are feeling better now.
I'm very interested to hear what you think of this video. I think it's a masterpiece! So emotional! I cried halfway through it. Sad and hopeful all at once. See ya soon!
Огромное спасибо дорогой. Классный разбор шедевр Димаша. Смотрю множество десятков раз. И всегда с болью и слезами в глазах. ДИМАШ гений , философ, истинный человек с горящей сердцем и душой.
I have linked this in message on the UN's website, suggesting that it be viewed by the General Assembly and perhaps as they did with BTS, Dimash be invited to speak.
En toda mi vida vi un trabajo así como esta obra de arte, es magnífica, doy gracias por vivir la era de Dimash, espero ver tu reacción con ansias , saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you Cedric. You get me message Dimash is using his voice his gift, to bring awareness.
👉 That is the grandiose and impressive result of three years of compositional work by Dimash Qudaibergen.
This clip is not about war, it’s about peace. War here is a means of expressing the contrast of what happens when we lose love for one another. It is about the call to unite, to stop dividing each other along national, social, religious lines in order to preserve life, love, friendship, and the land for our children.
Story: (Requiem means: Funeral, Funeral Mass, Funeral Service)
The clip is divided into several parts. The first one is about childhood. The main character, his 2 friends are connected by childhood stories and symbols of eternal friendship. The pendant is a gnomon, the shadow pointer of a sundial, which was also used as a maritime compass before antiquity.
One day the friend saves the Protagonist when he drowns. However, there is already competition in this children’s story, as the boys are in love with one girl, and she chooses one.
The second experiences a kind of psychological breakdown and transfers the children’s problems into the adult world of totalitarianism and struggle.
By becoming president, the Antagonist carries the idea of a saving war:
“Only war will lead us to peace. Only the strongest can find love in their hearts. You must be strong enough to give the world freedom. A world where every city, every home is one. We will lead all who are ready to begin this new life. Anyone who resists has no place with us. I choose freedom. The world is open before me, and I want to give it to you. War for the people is the way to unity.”
The main character also speaks of unity, of peace, but through the lens of kindness and love.
While fighting, he is confused, he is in shock, but he has to save his family - his pregnant wife (the very girl from his childhood) and his daughter. Once home, he is horrified by the picture of the dead and realizes that his family is also dead. After surviving this drama, he moves on to the antagonist to seek revenge.
However, the Protagonist’s wife survives with the help of people who know that she is the one who must give birth to a special boy who can save the world. These are people of different nationalities and faiths who have united for peace.
A parallel line of pilgrims are people of different religions, walking the hard path to some place of power where they could unite and discover the Heavenly Eye that would illuminate the world. By uniting, they create a common energy in which the protagonist’s son is born, as Hope and Faith for the Better. Their journey is a symbol of faith in general, because it always goes through trials. When we go to the truth, we go through certain lessons and our way to God is difficult, but only possible if we come together.

Dimash Qudaibergen’s 12-minute work is dedicated to the unity of people on our planet. We are all divided into races, nations and religions, but we are all children of one planet and live under one sky. Life is the highest value.
No sacred book calls for the destruction of people. We must learn to be friends; it is impossible for a few adults to cause millions of children to suffer. The future of our planet, the future of people is in our hands, let there be peace in the world.
We are children of one Home, one Earth and one Heaven.
(sources: astanatimes, Dimash news and description under the video)
My opinion: The whole song is an outcry. My heart aches because of the wars and misery in this world. The greed, envy and intolerance of men will wipe them off the face of the earth if they do not come to their senses. Children and women are targeted victims of annihilation and rape in wars. But they are not just victims or mothers. They are half of humanity. Where are they? Why don't the women climb the mountain side by side with the men and head towards the sunrise and a better future? I only see men running mercilessly past a collapsed comrade-in-arms. Nobody helps him. What future can such a humanity await? Will anything ever change?

On September 13, 2022, Dimash performed his new song 'The Story of One Sky' at the Unity and Diversity concert held for convention attendees. The music video premiered on September 24 at Dimash's meeting with fans in Almaty.
A few days earlier, Dimash said he had just shot 'the world's most expensive music video' for the composition. (It used to be Michael Jackson's 'Thriller')

Hello Dear Tirallala: I also noticed, that the people who walk to the light, along with Dimash, are only men and I wondered - why? What's about women and children? I tried to explain this to myself, but I'm not very sure about my conclusion....
My reasoning was: maybe these men should represant the religious leaders of different religions, perhaps with their closest co-workers ....who are male.... (as was seen recently in Astana at the VII. Congress of Leaders of World- and Traditional Religions).
Next: In the MV everyone somehow goes for themselves and carries their symbol for the respective faith. No one cares about the other. Only after the scenes in the film have come to a head and shortly after one of them has blown this horn , they are at least about to give him a makeshift burial...Perhaps this should imply a first step towards one another, a rapprochement between the different religions? ... Hmmm 🤔?? .... but quite late, because the man has already died in the sand. ???
And do you think that the shirt of the („2nd“) Dimash at the end, is just wet because it should look like sweat, or that it's supposed to be an indication of the (1st) Dimash's gunshot wound?
If he was supposed to be the son of the1st Dimash, maybe they should have chosen a different actor and add a little scene like: showing the baby first (as seen), then maybe a short picture of another slightly older child with the amulet around his neck and finally another adult actor instead of Dimash.
... or someone who looks little bit like him (such as Dimash's brother Mansur, (not really serious meant ;-) )...it just occurred to me, because I noticed amazed at the concert ... they now look very similar ... similar haircut, but also in terms of size .... a handsome young man, his brother).
Kind greetings from a German Dear💞
@@sabinelenz2050 Hallo Sabine-Dear, ich kann dir erst jetzt antworten, weil RUclips der Meinung ist, dass meine Kommentare gegen die Richtlinien verstoßen und ich wurde für 6 Stunden kaltgestellt, konnte nichts schreiben.
Ja, du hast recht. Die Pilger sollen die religiösen Führer darstellen und leider sind das heutzutage nur Männer. Ich hätte es jedoch weitsichtiger gefunden, denn es geht ja um die Zukunft, wenn Dimash uns Frauen als gleichberechtigte Partner an die die Seite der Männer gestellt hätte. Aber Dimash ist natürlich auch das Produkt seiner Erziehung durch seine Großmutter, die kasachische Gesellschaft und seine Religion. Er achtet und respektiert Frauen aber er ist trotzdem ein Macho. In Interviews sagt er, Kochen sei Frauenarbeit und er hat klare Vorstellungen, wie seine zukünftige Frau sein soll.
Vielleicht wäre es klüger gewesen, wenn der Sohn von Dimash von seinem Bruder gespielt worden wäre. (Ich muss schmunzeln, wenn ich sehe wie schüchtern Mansur ist). Es gäbe keine Verwirrung. Manche Vblogger denken, es sei eine Wiedergeburt (buddhistisch) oder ein neuer Messias (christlich). Ich bin nicht religiös und finde, dass dieser Weg in die bessere Zukunft zu einseitig auf Gläubige und Männer beschränkt ist, auch erinnert es mich ein wenig an Personenkult (und der gehört auch zu Kazachstan).
Ich mag das Video und natürlich vor allem Dimash’s Gesang. Ich sehe das Video mehrmals täglich (empfohlen von meinem Arzt für Musikologie :) und ich weine immer wieder aufs Neue. Es ist einfach großartig. Liebe Grüße aus Berlin
Thank you for your detailled analysis, especially on the cinematographic aspects, the colour schemes and speeds, and the connections with the composition and the singing - I was looking forward to your analysis! What I found remarkable - among other things - in this video: that it started and ended with a drowning - the chorus 'We're choosing life'- with an almost breaking voice, so strong and haunting, [you called it pleading, correctly] i have been dreaming about it 😪 -- the hints on reinkarnation - and the very last scene where Dimash is looking at us in that very special way of his : won't you come ?🤍
I find it remarkable hat you caught so many aspects in the first viewing. Looking forwards to a second, more even more detailled analysis later. Thank you again for taking time to do this!
Cedric you might find this interesting.
From Heiderose Kober Dimash Kudaibergen International Fan Club.
This is subtitled "Requiem” but it is also a vision and a call to action. Dimash is steeped in sacred music and has a deep understanding of the mystic teachings and symbolism of the major world religions as well as Kazakh shamanism. It is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14, 2022, at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions in Kazakhstan. The written statement at the end of the video is directly from the “Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together” signed jointly on February 4, 2019, by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmad el-Tayeb. Dimash met and spoke with both men at the September meeting.
Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel. I only touch on some of what struck me in the symbolism. The music is a dissertation all by itself. The pendant is an interesting element. It is a gnomon from a maritime compass sundial. This triangular blade is attached to the sundial, casting a shadow on the sundial while the perforated pinhole projects the image of the sun onto the dial. It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. (Thank you, Snarky Tart for that information). In the MV, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers, but distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through rendering it useless as a compass. When we lose the original intent of a symbol by twisting it into something it is not or by just paying lip service, it no longer has any spiritual meaning. At best it becomes a useless prop, at worst it is used to mislead and manipulate people.
Contemporary music is also present: With the phrase "We have passed the moment of Imagine," Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song "Imagine" by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must act and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way.
The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment, we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war.
The Piper's call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let's remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start the war, who do not support the war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against?
The burning sign "Waldenberg" is a reference to the end of WWII when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht close to the end of the war in April 1945 in the part of Germany where I grew up. I have seen the aftermath of war as I was born a few years later when much of Germany was still in rubble. Waldenburg is only 28 miles from my hometown and was completely destroyed as you can see from the picture. Many of the dead in those bombed-out buildings were women and children. The good guys defeated evil but at what price? War is not the answer. We must find better ways to keep evil in check. iowaculture.gov/history/education/educator-resources/primary-source-sets/world-war-ii/american-troops-move-through
The last movement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant that creates a sacred space, reminding us that death and birth are both sacraments and are interwoven in the tapestry of life. Dimash's vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. When Dimash’s character decides to avenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storm of his emotions that buffets the pilgrims and hinder progress. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the "sacred womb" of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy, and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war and suffering by choosing life. Dimash's scream of “we’re choosing life” is that of giving birth: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity as exemplified by the images of the children and the newborn baby.
The blowing of the shofar signals God's mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right: in the Zohar, the book of Jewish mysticism, it says: “When human beings repent of their sins, they blow the shofar on earth. Its sound ascends On High and awakens the heavenly shofar, and so mercy is aroused and judgment is removed.”
Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash's character in the form of his son becomes a spiritual guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage, race, and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect.
Carl Jung wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
This is what Dimash has done with this work; he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time.
We don’t have to wait. We can start right now. As the hymn tells us: "Let there peace in the world, and let it begin with me." Baraka Bashad.
You did well - despite the often interruptions... Here's the best and might possibly be the only true reading of Dimash's masterpiece by a German youtuber:
This is subtitled “Requiem”, but it is also a vision and a call to action.

It is not by coincidence that the first performance of this work took place on September 14 at the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions.

Dimash met and spoke (and received a medal from Pope Francis for his contributions to the World of Peace) with both men at the September meeting.
Everything Dimash does is intentional, and this piece has layers that would take a dissertation to unravel.

It was used for both timekeeping and navigation, with the gnomon oriented to True North. In the Music Video, the child who later becomes the military commander never puts on the necklace. After Dimash, the boy, gives his friend the pendant, the camera focuses on his hand and shows that his friend has bent the gnomon in anger over being rejected by the girl. Thus bent, it can never be oriented to True North, and he has lost his moral compass. Later, we see a version of the gnomon, but distorted and without the hole that allows light to shine through, as the military insignia on the uniforms of the commander and his soldiers.
2 Contemporary music is also present: with the phrase “We have passed the moment of Imagine”, Dimash reminds us that we are past the sentiments evoked by the song “Imagine” by John Lennon. It is time to stop dreaming about a world of peace and harmony. If we choose life, if we wish for peace, if we want a world without war for our children and grandchildren, we must act and take up the long hard path up the mountain towards the light. It is the only way.
3 The storyline is a very human one: we start as innocents until our hearts are broken, we fail, or our dreams are not realized. If in our pain and disappointment we turn to anger and blame instead of acceptance, power instead of love, greed and envy instead of generosity, hatred instead of forgiveness, and revenge instead of justice, we sow the seeds for conflicts that can turn into war.
4 The Piper’s Call is seductive as it promises redress for our grievances, control over our circumstances, and power over those who thwarted us, and this appeals to our wounded ego. However, let’s remember that the Piper is a symbolic figure of Death from the Middle Ages, often used as a metaphor for trusting and following charismatic but dangerous and malevolent leaders to certain death. Even if we resist, as the adult Dimash character does, we often employ the same methods and weaponry as the Piper, and thus those who fight back betray peace as well because peace cannot be won through violence. That is the dilemma of those of us who did not start the war, who do not support war, but are forced to respond in order to defend ourselves and those we love. How can we rid the world of evil without becoming what we fight against?
5 The burning sign “Waldenburg” is a reference to the end of WWII, when the US Army destroyed the last of the resistance by the German Wehrmacht to end the war in April of 1945. As a native Eastern European, I have seen the aftermath of the war as I was born just a few years later, when much of Europe was still in turmoil. Waldenburg, which is only 175 miles from Berlin, was completely destroyed. Many of the dead were women and children, because all men ages 15 through 75 were mobilized. So, the good guys defeated evil, but at what price?
6 The last movement is powerful: The cries over the loss of a beloved child and the cries of giving birth to new life are presented as a call-and-response grounded by a powerful Om chant that creates a sacred space, reminding us that death and life are both sacraments and are interwoven. Dimash’s vocalization and the pilgrims representing world religions and religious leaders, past and present, walking together shift the narrative toward the final conflict and finally redemption. When Dimash’s character decides to avenge the murder of his daughter, his state of consciousness is reflected in the darkening sky with lightning bolts of anger accompanying the storm of his emotions that struck the pilgrims sharply. The fog of war obscures the light. When he is killed after exacting retribution, he is dropped back into the “sacred womb” of Earth, the ocean of love and mercy and is cleansed of the old hatreds and grievances that only bring more death and suffering. He breaks the wheel of endless war by choosing life. Dimash’s scream “We’re choosing life” is that of giving life: the old earthly consciousness of an eye for an eye has to die to make way for a new spiritual consciousness that embraces all life. Soul is breaking free to return to its natural state of love and purity as examplified by the images of the children and the newborn baby.
The blowing of the shofar signals God’s mercy for humankind when it turns from wrong to right.
Reborn as a leader for peace and love, Dimash’s character becomes a guide for all of mankind on our shared journey up the mountain towards the light of God, however we may interpret or name the divine. We are all on the same path, even if our personal narratives, cultural heritage and spiritual orientations are very different from one another. By focusing on our common destination rather than on our differences, we can walk together in peace and love and mutual respect. Dimash is showing us how.
Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology, wrote: “Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
This is what Dimash has done with this work: he has made the darkness conscious. We can only raise our individual and collective consciousness by bringing to light what needs to be healed in our lives and our world, and then we need to work together to restore wholeness to what is broken and bring about peace and unity, one step at a time...
Film, epic, wonderful, disconcerting, divine.
"The characters are attached to symbols that are passed from generation to generation, through this symbol they are born, kill and die and are born again... always thinking that they will be different, but no".
Symbols transcend human understanding, so they are carried by the winds of endless ages so that humanity never realizes its courage and realizes that its life has meaning and follows the path of necessary and urgent evolution.
Global leaders, world owners use these symbols and the propaganda narrative to control people's minds, they will easily digest what is behind a symbol that perpetuates itself for generations. Some symbols serve to justify aggressions, invasions, wars, it is the way to unite them robotically and that they cannot think for themselves.
When "They realize" that someone has left the cave and can take crowds with them, they create "imperfections in matter" to prevent the children of light, the dimensional ones, from doing the awakening work that would generate the "Revolution".
"Piper" in the song, is a reference to the flutist of Hamelin, who with his flute attracts and hypnotizes mice to follow him and die, "Piper" is an analogy to his childhood friend who became the evil leader, who created a war destroying lives in search of a supposed "Union".
In the end, Dimash when falling into the water screams "we choose life" it is a desperate cry of "There is no life in war, war is death".
It is important and urgent that you get out of the cave, out of your private bubble and realize that you are being controlled by a strange and lying narrative and start to see and observe what is outside, get other information and think and make decisions for yourself. If you don't, you will be just another sheep that meekly walks to the slaughterhouse.
Only a free and dimensional soul could open the veil that covers our eyes and courageously show and criticize on its platform this subjection to which humanity is trapped. History repeats itself as we can see in these symbols shown by Dimash in his epic and glorious film.
Hug from Brasi.

❤️❤️❤️
What a masterpiece, with an universal message of peace!
Cedric, thank you so much for persevering to upload your reaction - it was so worth it, to hear your intelligent and enlightening observations! (I don’t know how you manage to notice so much detail at once, even with your background in film-making, acting etc.!)
A masterpiece ❤
This piece of great work by Dimash moved me to tears. Such a powerful message.
This is the greatest yet from Dimash.
Thank you so much for the excellent reaction and analysis. Much appreciated. ❤
Ufff 😢 espere tu reacción con mucha espectativa x tu manera de ver cosas que al común de la gente se nos escapa... pero hoy no hay traducción en español buuaaaa ..
Igual lo vi...
Dimash inigualable como siempre y más 🔝👏
Good to see you back and feeling better. I couldn't wait to hear your commentary, which was so wonderful. I was struck by so many subtle things aside from the dramatic moments. Dimash sings that we are beyond the aspirations of John Lennon's "Imagine". Being a hopeful flower child of the 60s and seeing what has happened since then I completely understand. He also sings of sharing love not "shares" (investments, money). As we grapple with a world where the oligarchy and plutocrats have so much influence over all governance this is indeed a throny problem, because those powerful people live in such privileged isolation that even when they think they are doing good it can be misguided. The scene with the leader, just before his death holding his childhood emblem that he has distorted into unifying through domination with tears in his eyes reminds me of Jean Valjean, who was certain that he was living a moraly correct life when he was confronted with the fallacy of his philosophy. This video has changed me as it has so many others, reflecting on personal responsibility and reconsidering engaging in divisive politics, understanding that our emotions are being manipulated by Master Pied Pipers. Dimash embodies Junian archtypes and shows us that we have within us the conflict of good and evil that informs all of our choices. By all means reflect and post afterthoughts. I really value your artistic insights and perspective.
The Valjean reference is super intriguing. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts!!
At the end of the MV when he is agonizing he yells "We are choosing life!"
La película está basada en una historia escrita por Dimash, con su propio guión. (Trabajó en esta pieza durante los últimos 3 años). La directora Alina Veripya contó sobre la creación del video musical de la nueva canción: El clip está dividido en varias partes. El primero es sobre la infancia. El personaje principal y sus 2 amigos están conectados por historias de la infancia y símbolos de amistad eterna. Un día, el amigo salva al protagonista cuando se ahoga. Sin embargo, ya hay competencia en esta historia infantil, ya que los chicos están enamorados de una chica y ella elige a uno. El segundo experimenta una especie de colapso psicológico y traslada los problemas de los niños al mundo adulto de totalitarismo y lucha. Al convertirse en presidente, el Antagonista lleva la idea de una guerra salvadora: “Solo la guerra nos llevará a la paz. Solo los más fuertes pueden encontrar el amor en sus corazones. Debes ser lo suficientemente fuerte para darle libertad al mundo. Un mundo donde cada ciudad, cada hogar sea uno. Guiaremos a todos los que estén listos para comenzar esta nueva vida. Cualquiera que se resista no tiene lugar con nosotros. Elijo la libertad. El mundo está abierto ante mí, y quiero dárselo a ustedes. La guerra para el pueblo es el camino a la unidad”. El personaje principal también habla de unidad, de paz, pero a través del lente de la bondad y el amor. Mientras pelea, está confundido, está en estado de shock, pero tiene que salvar a su familia: su esposa embarazada (la niña de su infancia) y su hija. Una vez en casa, queda horrorizado por la imagen de los muertos y se da cuenta de que su familia también está muerta. Después de sobrevivir a este drama, pasa al Antagonista para buscar venganza. Sin embargo, la esposa del Protagonista sobrevive con la ayuda de personas que saben que ella es quien debe dar a luz a un niño especial que puede salvar el mundo. Estas son personas de diferentes nacionalidades y religiones que se han unido por la paz. Una línea paralela de peregrinos son personas de diferentes religiones, recorriendo el duro camino hacia algún lugar de poder donde podrían unirse y descubrir el Ojo Celestial que iluminaría el mundo. Al unirse, crean una energía común en la que nace el hijo del Protagonista, como Esperanza y Fe para lo Mejor. Su camino es un símbolo de la fe en general, porque siempre pasa por pruebas. Cuando vamos a la verdad, pasamos por ciertas lecciones y nuestro camino hacia Dios es difícil, pero solo es posible si nos unimos. Este clip no se trata de la guerra, se trata de la paz. La guerra aquí es un medio para expresar el contraste de lo que sucede cuando perdemos el amor el uno por el otro. Se trata del llamado a unirnos, a dejar de dividirnos por motivos nacionales, sociales, religiosos, para preservar la vida, el amor, la amistad y la tierra para nuestros hijos. (fuente: dimashnews) "El trabajo de 12 minutos de Dimash Qudaibergen está dedicado a la unidad de las personas en nuestro planeta. Todos estamos divididos en razas, naciones y religiones, pero todos somos hijos de un planeta y vivimos bajo un mismo cielo. La vida es el valor más alto. Ningún libro sagrado llama a la destrucción de las personas. Debemos aprender a ser amigos; es imposible que unos pocos adultos hagan sufrir a millones de niños. El futuro de nuestro planeta, el futuro de las personas está en nuestras manos, que haya paz en el mundo. Somos hijos de un solo Hogar, una sola Tierra y un solo Paraíso ". PD La parte de los peregrinos todavía está en la actualidad, no en la antigüedad. Habla de la necesidad de la unidad al servicio de la Vida, valor supremo. El Protagonista muere, su hija muere como víctima inocente de la guerra (¿posiblemente su esposa muere en el parto?), el Antagonista muere. El hijo (del Protagonista y su esposa) sobrevive con la ayuda de personas de todos los credos y, en el último cuadro, continúa, junto con los peregrinos de todos los credos, por el camino de la Bondad, la Esperanza y Fe para lo Mejor. Dimash interpretó la canción The Story of One Sky por la verdadera primera vez en el Séptimo Congreso de Líderes de Religiones Mundiales y Tradicionales, que se celebró en Astana (Nur-Sultan) a mediados de septiembre. Uno de los oyentes fue el Papa Francisco, quien luego se reunió con Dimash y le entregó una medalla conmemorativa.
Alot of people think this should be nominated for the new Grammy for Best Song for Social Change. What do you think? I loved all your insights on this epic video. Love from Roseburg, Oregon.
el tema, el vídeo, la interpretación la suplica de Dimash es realmente maravillosa, pero también cabe destacar tu reacción, estaba esperándola porque siempre le das otra impronta, me gustan tus explicaciones que comparto mucho. Suerte en tu vida.
Hello Cedric :) New subscriber here ! I hope that you are getting better, even if I assume it’s the case because you are providing us a new video 😊 I can’t wait to hear and see your reaction about Dimash’s new MV, I’m sure your reaction/analysis will be awesome as always ! To my humble opinion, this is definitively one of his best music videos/ songs, if not the best. The cinematography, the message behind the MV, the lyrics, his voice, everything was so powerful and meaningful …
Take care of you and your family, and see you at your Premiere tomorrow ! :)
God bless you Cedric..
No one covers all angles of a video.. like you young man.

Спасибо за реакцию и профессионализм. Очень нравится, как вы подмечаете детали и смотрите глубоко. Интересно смотреть видео Димаша вместе с вами.
Лучшая реакция у Седрика,я посмотрел уже порядка 80-ти,некоторые откровенный хайп(меня это бесит просто😅)
@@user-zi9pv5fd6p будьте снисходительны, все люди разные, многие просто не понимают величину и гениальность Димаша , а видят спрос и за Его счёт просто пиарятся...увы...но все равно есть шанс, что посмотрев реакцию, кто- нибудь просто любопытства ради зайдет на канал Димаша и будет навсегда покорен этим волшебным голосом ...
Думаю,что Вы наверняка видели замечательные реакции двух классных реакционеров, действительных поклонников Димаша- Fable Sphere Clips и Arab Man Reacts... 💗💗🎶🎶
@@user-oc6hd8sn7d конечно видел,некоторые реакции я пересматриваю несколько раз))
Cedric gracias por reaccionar a nuestro Dimash es increíble ,maravilloso saludos de México
Il a chanté live The story of one sky le 23 Septembre lors de son grand concert STRANGER à Almaty (Kazakhstan)
Как всегда, ваша реакция полная и впечатляет, ведь вы смотрите фильм как режиссер, как актер и специалист кинематографии. И вы дали тоже много пищи для размышления. Димаш со своим вокалом может подтолкнуть на глубокие размышления. И это, действительно, уникальное музыкальное произведение и уникальный вокал! Фильм неоднозначный и над ним надо долго думать. Спасибо за реакцию!
Thank you for an excellent review and analysis of this wonderful short film. The General was his childhood friend. The woman having the baby was the young girl grown up who was also his wife. The child that was killed was his child. The shepard, at the end, was his baby grown up leading his peaceful cause.The live performance of this song can be found about 23 minutes into his Almaty concert part 3. The live performance is the most moving performance that I have ever seen from a vocal artist. Bring tissues...you will be crying.
The Story Of One Sky - I have watched this many times and still find things out that i never thought of amazing video and i have said it before if anyone could bring peace i strongly believe Dimash could make it possible. This needs to be shared worldwide to show people there is another way. War is never the answer because the only ones to suffer are the innocent
rewatched the song of Dimash today one line stood out to me One of the most profound lines in The Story Of One Sky is the line "Learn to share the love, Not shares" Not shares meaning stop making money out of war rich people have many shares in companies that profit from weapon manufacturing making them richer while the innocent suffer sadly this is why war exists. MONEY, GREED and POWER.
The part in the video with the little girl and the people in the hallway were Dimash's family who had been wiped out the little girl whose body he picked up was his daughter, the baby that was born was his son who grew up to be Dimash grown up at the end. This video needs to be shown worldwide
Something else i noticed is in his dying breath he sang (We're Choosing Life) as he finally passed away now that is powerful
Очень жду вашей реакции, вы настоящий профессионал своего дела, и хотелось бы послушать вас.
La mejor canción de Dimash 💯💯🇨🇷❤️
Totally agree
Cedric, I am waiting for this video with high anticipation. You are, among the reactors, has the most experience and knowledge in filming industry. I can’t wait!
Я ждала именно вашу реакцию. Я знала, что именно вы тонко и точно охарактеризуете это видео. Спасибо!!!
Hi Cedric - I hope you’re doing ok as I’ve been thinking of you and praying for you. However, when this was released I was hoping that you would be well enough to react to this but hesitated to ask! Thank you, my friend - I am SO looking forward to your thoughts. Plymouth UK 🇬🇧
Mil gracias por tu reacción! Se aprende y disfruta; Dimash sensaciones y emociones épicas ! Nos muestra y nos deja mucho en que pensar y reflexionar! Profundo! Nos lleva a otro nivel! Gracias querido Dimash, eres excepcional, saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴
Dimash puts his soul into his songs and his acting. I am sure that he felt his emotions over this story to the core of his soul. "One Sky" isn't a movie. It is a spiritual experience. I, for one, would follow him to the ends of the galaxy to promote peace. I loved how you read relevant writings to prevent copyright issues. Thank you, Sir.
I was looking forward to your reaction to this particular MV, as not many reactors delve deeper in the meanings behind Dimash's songs.
What fascinated me the most is the ending as it generates a lot of conclusions depending on who the person watching is, his culture or religion.
For example:
the 1st thing that came to mind after seeing it is, all those people are those who are victims of war and that's their after life. 2nd explanation was maybe he got reincarnated and led people to unite and be peaceful. But then I remembered his Dimash's religion and I crossed off those options. Which brought me next to think that could be his son that was born the moment he died and continued his father's legacy of bringing peace to people (a conclusion that I made after watching and connecting the scenes many times).
Those are my thoughts and of course I saw many people have other beliefs on what that ending meant. Regardless, it's all the same in the end, the character of Dimash leading people to peace, perhaps.
! In "Dimashnews" is information about the video and story, very interesting!!!
The words at the end are also so important.
I had no words, couldnt move, nearly couldnt breathe.. its a " last call", a Requiem..., if the people dont wake up and choose life, with GOD, the ONE GOD in the ONE SKY, ... there will be no good end... a deep deep wake up call with every cell of Dimashs being, using all his blessed gifts..
This is why he came here... no doubt...
