When giants die let three generations look back on the street happenings around parties and manifestations. The grandfather appears as a ghost and represents processions organized by order of cities and municipalities. It is his son who places the parades in a series of processions, historical processions, parades, traditional parties and carnival parties. Criticism and attraction play their game. Finally, the grandson searches for contemporary forms and points to demonstrations, manifestations. Reclaiming the street, forming a community, expressing thoughts on the street, together outside, ... 'The street, the mother of democracy', is how it sounds through a robot-controlled horn. To give up the street is to lose freedom.
