Re: [Cz-L] "Liberation" of Northern Bukovina

To All,
  The movie file - is takes some time to load so be patient.
   It is full with Ruthenian folklore ,they sing continuously.(not
Rumanian).
   I liked most a piece were a horse and rider is led inside a house and
then out.
     The crowd outside clap their hands as the horse reappears.
         Big joy ! What if the horse choses to stay in ?
     The essence of the movie is to show Ukraineans finally enjoying freedom
of opression.

     Women with bags are around on Czernowitzer streets even today.
    An old time habit from Soviets. And a bag is always good to have with
you.
       You never know..
               Hardy
