the people protesting look very relaxed & happy, like they're on their way to a summer party rather than demonstrating against ... something; they don't have any signs or chants to let people know what they are protesting about.
maybe it would have a stronger impact if the makers of the video had left the sound of the pots & pans in, instead of using a very gentle song ... but to me it feels like these people are not complaining about anything really ...
