Unfortunately, that video makes a lot more sense only if you understand quantum mechanics or quantum computation. The video doesn't realy describe what quantum computation is but it rather describes what feature of QM makes quantum computers different from classical computers (superposition and quantum correlations) and why is it so difficult to build or use a quantum computer (decoherence, and the fact that you can't observe or clone the "registers" at intermediate stages in a computation). The video addresses the notion of quantum computing quite obliquely. I would expect this to be the first of a multi-part series where this is explored in more depth (especially given the attention it's receiving).
