Aliens:
Curious creatures stick out their neck

Like in a trance these sheer size blue ‘Aliens’ wander around the crowds. From high above these “longnecks” are watching down at you. There is no way you will miss them, when they start marching into the crowd. Their approach is friendly and prudent, but they surely are curious. Their long, long fingers are ticklish and their tall heads keep on nodding. Suddenly, they freeze to a halt, and tracking their leader calls they proceed in a stunning slow motion.
