A Story of Light explores a journey of light into more and more concrete layer’s of matter and life. The journey begins with the slowing down of light to c, which is posited to have resulted in a Big Bang from which the process of the creation of the layers of matter began.

Then the bullets struck, and the assassinated president became a legend, the truth of his life obscured by his tragic and untimely death. But JFK had more depth to his character than the magazine covers indicated.
