Event: July 5, 2017 Members of the march “1000 figures” held a silent protest action against the G20 summit in Hamburg. Demonstrators, painted themselves in the color of clay, then moved, then froze. At the end of the action, they tore off their dark gray clothes and started dancing in colorful T-shirts.

Closed in themselves, the same people creep over their lives, obeying the whole state, the authorities, not wanting to express their opinion.
