Scope and Content

Nighttime scene of a church service, Easter in Kiev. Very bad quality EXT shot of people arriving at a church; quality is somewhat better inside, where throngs of people watch as clergy and others make their way to the altar. Some pushing and shoving because of the enormity of the crowd. Perhaps taking communion?
