A celebration of natural beauty.

Warning: Spoilers
Part of a series challenging the viewer to reconsider what is beautiful, this piece is simple yet evocative - an elegant, magically accelerated rejuvenation, from desolate and deforested to verdant and untouched.

The song complements the visuals perfectly, slowly building in volume and energy to a triumphant crescendo as her transformation is complete.

It serves as an inspiration to transcend the pervasive, patriarchal, trichophobic double-standard that has afflicted "modern" society, an ingenious marketing ploy which has fooled the vast majority of the populace into believing women's bodies are somehow inherently "wrong", and has effectively obligated adult women to literally spend blood and treasure keeping arbitrarily delineated regions of their bodies shorn for the past 100 years.

Ultimately, it demonstrates beauty is not spoiled by the presence of body hair, rather it is accentuated by it. It provides a glimpse of the beauty waiting to be rediscovered if we find the courage to reject our antiquated, puritanical culture of bodily shame, and instead re-learn to embrace and admire the body natural, restoring our attitude toward naturally evolved human biology to its rightful place as "normal".
