Only a few more days of my Portugal-Family vacation remain. Today I’m quickly checking in with a video I captured in the Bica, downtown Lisbon, over the weekend. What initially looked like a demonstration coming way, very quickly turns out to be a scene from a film being shot in my neighborhood.
Kind of shame, looked like it would have been a great protest.
Kind of sad when the best protests are actually staged. Hmmm…
true. movies make it all look so good though.
Hi BicycleMark!
I guess you were just waking up, weren’t you? Have you seen any policemen and armed forces around the demo? No? So easily one guesses that it was a set up. I mean it because in Lisboa it is also required to organize a “spontaneous” peacefull demonstration with the authorities and to follow the police orders…
On the other hand, if it was one of this weary Lisbon weekends, I would have gone deeper and comment you latest comment saying that: “isn’t it all a big movie what we are living in this world? Don’t we forge roles or rn away from roles prepared for us all the time?”.
But once I am in Denmark, and not so weary like that (‘Need a chance! ‘Need an upgrade! ‘Need a move!) I will read this post and leave this message with a simple smile on my face.
Cheers!
thanks for the comment. I think.
