| Description: | Rather odd - 2 shots which seem to have nothing to do with each other. 1st a shot of soldiers and young men in academic look: robes and mortarboard hats - like graduation; standing in a row facing away from camera. Behind them a procession of men in long white robes ; walking between the line of people and a large stone building; like a church or school building. Some ceremony? Large crowd gathered round a train or tram car; caravan - looks sorta like a gypsy wagon. One man is standing on back of this; making a speech to crowd; another man sits on step. Sign (buildt onto the car on top; like where a destination sign would be; says "SOCIALISM" - - (at least it looks like it says that; but on this copy the titles etc. cover it up). People in BG in the crowd have large banners - like those for trade unions? 1 flag actually blows in front of camera; in CU - not legible. | |
