Purim Tish in Me'a She'arim

I've photographed this Tish, of the Breslev hassidic community, during Purim holiday of 2012, in the orthodox neighborhood of Jerusalem, Me'a She'arim (100 Gates). Purim is a wild holiday for some orthodox Jews, who are very conservative throughout the year, and in addition to wearing halloween like costumes, they allow themselves to even get drunk, or enable kids to smoke! So it's very common to see young hassidic man and kids getting drunk and getting involved in fights. The atmosphere of the Tish is at peak during wild dances of the men.
