About the project
Beings passing by a small lens make us realize that we all have something in common, a past, present and future.

Society continues dividing and pigeonholing us, by economic class, color, nationality, religion, disability, etc. However First Dip Of The Year shows how at the end of the day we all have a past, a present and a future, problems that we have dealt with, are dealing with and will deal with. First Dip Of The Year tries to show us what empathy could do in our society if we saw our neighbors as equals, if we looked at the girl at the cash register where we buy our bread with the same admiration as we look at Oprah Winfrey or Bill Gates. Life is not about class, money, or reputation, but about the kindness and humanity we must develop to look at every living being with the same eyes.
