The one on the far left holds a flag. Multiple microphones stand on the podium in front of Imrédy. Various shots of the audience and the guards standing on the stage, each with a flag topped by metal symbols. Imrédy continues giving his speech, taking glances at the paper in his hands. The guard stands in formation with hands at their sides on stage. View of the audience extending back through a large entryway. Symbol of a rearing horse in a large circle. CU of a man in the audience, camera focuses on the people seated behind him. Imrédy’s speech goes on and he shakes his right hand in the air, index finger extended.
