'Red white, red white, rose go!'
The filming of a historical parade.
On the 31st of August 2008 we organised a parade to honour the Plow. The parade enacts the course of the success of the Plow (a weaver mill) until its downfall (the Bolshevik cemetery). But also the hope of a new future.
The parade consisted of:
- Two children, dressed as a donkey and a lion
- Mayor van de Vondervoort, Bergeijk
- Ballet dancers
- A diva in a convertible
- The Royal Brass Band and percussion group Echo der Kempen
- A standard bearer carying the flag of the Plow.
The parade leads from the mill to the so-called Bolschevik cemetery on Schietbergdreef. (This is were the first employees of the Plow were burried, because they weren’t welcome on the old cemetery)
At the end of the parade the donkey and lion throw off their skins and change into cheerleaders.
