The symbolism of the flag is important because the flag is the first symbol that humankind uses to show domination and possession of a territory.
In this case, the flag has a hole, making it open to any representation. This means that, literally, anything can be placed in the flag's middle
portion of space signified by the hole. In the video action, this flag is transferred from one hand to another. In one of the scenes, the flag is lost in
the river but then recovered by children who, next, attempt to launch this flag into the sky, moving this powerful symbol of possession into other hands.
