A man uses a pair of scissors while at a commune in Solnechnoye, 1977. At right, he stands in profile, facing left. His head is turned towards the background and his long hair obscures his face. A peace sign hangs down from his neck. With his hand nearest to camera, he holds a pair of scissors. The scissors blades hover over his other hand. Behind him at right, a tent is pitched. A trail and small clearings dot the wooded background.
