Chara Iakovidou

A march, a synthesis of demonstrations in Paris. Organized from below, without hierarchy or privilege, the Yellow Vests movement takes shape there as a new political experimentation. A fictional text accompanies images of the spaces of action and debate that opened up. As we experience them, the events are as powerful as in the best fictions.

Images of labor and unemployment in present-day Greece. Athens, Perama, Thessaloniki, Skouries… "Block after block, the liquidation of the world goes on" (René Char). Instances of rupture with what used to define the world of work until now, as well as the momentum created by those who fight.
