The story behind "Globalisation 9: Russian Avon lady on the market"

Well maybe not Avon exactly, but a wide range of chemicals, both Russian-made as well as international brands in a 1 square meter booth.
Where the older generation was selling mostly goods from the land and hand-made stuff, the younger generation is marketing more plastic trash as well as all kinds of chemicals like these here, that we are supposed to need, even though our forefathers could do fine without them..
