Wasserpuppenfigur, Ruderboot

20. Jahrhundert | Christian Schicklgruber

As part of a village festival to worship the local patron god, boat races are held in villages that lie on bodies of water. A scene of the water puppet show in the village pond is also dedicated to them. A song plays from the loudspeaker:

I'm rowing in the deep riverWhen the wind is strong, I take in the sailsOur village follows the (communist) partyToday the north and the south (of Vietnam) are unitedWe sing the song of the reunification of the nationWe sing the song of peaceI row in the deep riverWhen the wind is strong, I pull in the sails
