1 EURO SHOP
during the years of the financial crisis, many small shops closed down. there was unemployment over 25%. Among young people the unemployment reached 60%. but the ones who were hit the hardest were old pensioners. in the photo an old man comes out of a “one euro shop”. He is looking down on the pavement, while reaching with his one hand on his jacket’s pocket. he speaks to himself. many pensioners in greece live with a monthly allowance of 400 euros while the living costs are as high as in germany.
