"mesmerizing" Ukraine's Got Talent video

[John Schillinger]

	This YouTube entry was forwarded to me, so perhaps it's making the  
rounds and many SEELANGERS have already seen it.  But if you haven't  
come across it, it's really touching and rather impressive!

This video shows the winner of "Ukraines Got Talent", Kseniya  
Simonova, 24,
drawing a continually unfolding series of pictures on an illuminated  
sand table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German  
invasion during World War II.

Her talent, which admittedly is a strange one, is mesmeric to watch.

The images, projected onto a large screen, moved many in the audience to
tears and she won the top prize of about #75,000.

She begins by creating a scene showing a couple sitting holding hands  
on a
bench under a starry sky, but then warplanes appear.  Adding and  
moving sand deftly with her fingertips she continually changes the  
scene projected on a wide screen for the audience.
