The Baha'i World Centre's own official page for "Dawn of the Light," the film commissioned by the Universal House of Justice for the 200th anniversary of the birth of the Bab. Its own description reads: "Two hundred years ago, the Bab appeared, inaugurating a new Dispensation and preparing humanity for the light of Baha'u'llah's Revelation." The Baha'i World News Service's own article on the film states that it follows the personal search for truth of eight people from different parts of the world, and that "the stories of the eight individuals are explored against the backdrop of the remarkable life of the Bab." The 48-minute film released on the bicentenary, 29 to 30 October 2019, in Arabic, English, French, Persian, Russian, Spanish and Swahili.
