The 4th of July Larp is a Polish LARP (live action role-playing) group that roleplays as contemporary Americans. They literally turn a holiday resort in a Polish forest into an American trailer park, with dozens of larpers who stay in character with their “family”, living at their assigned trailer home for 28 hours at a time. You can read more about it on Vice. Here’s how the groups describes themselves on their facebook page (translated from Polish):

“On July 4, 1776, the United States declared independence.
The newcomers from the Old Continent wanted to create a new state in America, built on democracy, freedom and equality. For decades, millions of people, guided by the American dream, have drawn to this beautiful country to finally – regardless of birth or social class – become someone else.
More than two hundred years later, many Americans live under conditions different from what the founding fathers of the nation imagined. Barely making ends meet, striving to be family members and worthy Americans despite poverty and exclusion. Although they live on the margins of society, their home – a small town lined with caravans and shaky houses – is for them the essence of “land of the free and the home of the brave.”
This is a story about them.”
