Today we’re excited to do a throwback to 2016 when we had Sam Kolder filming this Beautiful Destinations Original in India. • Diwali is India’s biggest and most important holiday of the year, observed by more than a billion people across faiths. Known as the Festival of Lights, it is a 5-day celebration bringing prayer, feasts, fireworks, family gatherings and, for some, a new year. Derived from the Sanskrit dipavali , which means “row of lights,” Diwali is known for the brightly burning clay lamps that celebrants line up outside their homes to cherish the victory of good over evil. • With this year’s coronavirus pandemic affecting the celebration, may we be able to derive comfort from the spirit of the holiday—the belief that, eventually, light will triumph over darkness. • • A Beautiful Destinations Original • Filmed, Directed and Edited by Sam Kolder • / samkolder • Second Shooters: • Jacob Riglin • / jacob • Jordan Wright • / taylorcutfilms • Aerial Video by Tom Jauncey • / tomjauncey
