Description:
This can be the night at the break of 12th and 13th December 1981 when the Security Service arrested many freedom activists. The Security Service officers work coldly, without commitment, event with a feeling of deep ennui - that's why one of them is picking his nose. They are knocking at a "cardboard" door and it's obvious that, if nobody opens, they will batter the door down with one blow and pull the person they came for out of the home by force. It is a typical staircase in a typical socialist block of flats. (E.D.)
