- At a first glance "Sur les toits" is a film about a prison revolt in the North East of France in the early 1970's. However this film is not about a singular historic incident - it is about you. You think you are free? Well, you are most likely not. Freedom must be fought for every day and this film is a reminder of that ancient fact. Director Nicolas Drolc has understood it is all about making the personal universal. His film is not soley about prison or the correctional system, his film is about raising one's voice and defining one's own fate. In a time where we all think we are so g'damn free "Sur les toits" makes us look back to see what fighting for one's freedom and dignity truly means.
- The former shepherd, Jean Lassalle, decides to run in the presidential election. Neither one nor two, Pierre Carles and Philippe Lespinasse, two filmmakers labeled left, but a bit politically lost, decide to take action: They proclaim themselves his campaign advisers, with the secret ambition to reveal his true nature, that of an anti capitalist revolutionary, lost among the centrists for 30 years. And if Jean Lassalle, after all, was a Correa with Bearnaise sauce? Against all odds, the mountaineer qualifies for the first round. Victory? Our spin doctors nickeled feet and their champion are not at the end of their surprises .
- Between 1900 and 1920, more than 14 million immigrants arrived in the United States, Howard Zinn's parents among them. They came fleeing poverty, war, racism, or religious persecution and dreamed of a promised land, of wealth, of a better life. The New World opened its arms wide to the poor and huddled masses of the Old: its unwanted fugitives. But above all, the rapidly expanding industries of the time required cheap labor. There were strikes and labor struggles all over the country led by great figures such as Emma Goldman, Mother Jones, Eugenes Debs and the Wobblies.

- As usual, Slim goes to the Point Ephémère bar in Paris to have a last drink.

- The bloody week, the creation of the early revolutionary CGT, the disaster at the Courrière mine, the great little fear of 1906, the red noon, the 8 o'clock day, the popular front - Episodes that gradually built social conquests and that were all crossed by an idea that, at the time, opposed Jean Jaurès and Emile Pouget: the general strike. Using little-known archives, historians Miguel Chueca and Charles Jaquier (in charge of the Mémoires sociales collection at Éditions Agone) tell the story of the union struggles, through the ideas and actions that marked this golden age and led to the social conquests that form the basis of today's working world.
