Artists in the street. It is an event under the sign of the happening that was held on the morning of Monday, May 1st. The procession, composed of between 10,000 and 15,000 people, did not give rise to any major overflow. On the contrary, several artists had decided to show, in their own way, their anger at the pension reform. For it was this reform that was still on everyone's lips.
Symbolic silent procession
Here, a group of Lille actresses marched in silence, all dressed as demonstrators injured in the eye and gagged by a piece of tape that read 49.3. At the head of this symbolic silent procession, we could recognize Corinne Masiero, the interpreter of Captain Marleau, the series of France 2, whose political commitment is no longer demonstrated.
A little further, it is a well-known figure of the artistic and political world of Lille who had chosen to contest, in his own way, the pension reform. Alessandro Di Giuseppe, alias the Pap 40, is a whimsical former candidate in the general elections. His credo: to play capitalist evangelists, disguised as a priest. With irony as the main weapon.
In short, we were not bored in the procession before, for some, going to continue the day at the international soup festival called the Louche d'Or. An unmissable event in Lille that can welcome up to 40,000 visitors.
