Description
An old man chants as he holds his fist in the air during a funeral procession in honor of a group of young men murdered by Contras. To his right, a group of people hold flower wreaths. Behind him, a group of people hold one of the coffins, which is draped by the red-and-black flag of the Sandinista National Liberation Front.
