Description
We are in Nikea, a large municipality close to Piraeus. In particular, we are at “Kyprou” street, very close to “Osia Xeni” square.
The film begins with a panoramic shot of the square, where wreaths are laid, for the anniversary of “25th March 1821”, the great national celebration of Greece’s independence from the Ottoman Empire.
More shots follow from the gathering area on “Kyprou” street, featuring the parade participants arriving and preparing. They also focus on the crowd that waits patiently to attend the event.
The parade begins! The camera, in the foreground, focuses on the flag bearer of the “Nikea High School for male students”– as it was called at the time. The recording continues with shots from participants dressed in traditional attire, students, and a crowd of men from different clubs with their flag bearers marching.
