02:16 where Jesus' sacrifice was performed.

02:19 Every year, we try to give or we inject new things to reach out to the kids,

02:27 different gimmicks.

02:28 Although, we maintain the story that is not just ending today,

02:35 correct, that they should improve it every day.

02:39 The original song of the play will also be included as part of their documentary film.
