This man helps others to have fun but experiences loneliness… And except for them, there are the invisible ones. If you notice, on the right side of the shadow you will see someone, holding something in his hand (maybe a glass or a book). Their shape is formed by light, not shadow. These are people we may not “see”, such as the bar owner.
