Loud mimes

Both of them were sitting on a corner drinking and smoking. Every now and then they were getting up, did some expressions to people who passed by and asked for money. If there was someone they did not like they were attacking him verbally. I went close to them, with a friend of mine while they were resting. They seemed asleep each of them with a bottle of wine at their hands. But then we were noticed. They were Italians, street performers working at the poverty stricken Athens of crisis. They seemed fit to the whole atmosphere. In Greece, where everything is upside down even silent mimes, rather than making expressions of sadness or happiness, could be drunk, dirty and very loud. Here they were. Aggressive mimes.

 

The fat one made the sad and angry expression: now you pay! 2 euros. That was the cost of taking this photo. Paid in full.
