Many women and girls all around the world are treated like goods. Sold and traded, as if they were toys.

Eight hundreds of ruffled and naked dolls are spread outon the pavement in a defined area.

They wear nothing but a label identifying them as merchandise.

Public is invited,by the performers,

to choose a doll and take care of her

dressing herlaying her down with care and kindness in a safe place

thus restoring her dignity.

DIRECTIONS:

1 Choose a doll2 Free her from the bar code

3 Dress her up with a white cloth and a red ribbon4 Lay her down in a safe place, together with other dolls

5 If there are other dolls you would like to take care of, you know what to do... go for it!
