A behind-the-scenes look at Transmedia Group MENA’s Oh Holy Night project, exploring how the beloved Christmas carol was produced in five languages as a message of unity, hope, and the true gift of Jesus’ love.
Recording this song in five different languages from across the Middle East and North Africa region was both a beautiful challenge and an unforgettable experience. It showed us how close we actually are to one another, and how a simple song can give us a small taste of what heaven might be like.
Our journey started with choosing the song and building the concept, while inviting people to take part in it. Then, we chose the five languages from our region: Kurdish, Arabic, Persian, Turkish, and English. By the time recording day arrived, a warm and joyful atmosphere had already formed. The camera was simply there to capture the natural joy of people sharing a meaningful moment together.
This video was produced to inspire hope in the listener's heart and invite them to think about eternity, where differences will no longer divide us, and where God will be visible and love will be the common language.
