This film traces the painful story of a worker in a lime factory who, due to a lack of professional safety and given the non-existence of sickness benefit, finds himself in a most dramatic situation. To provide for the needs of the family, his wife sees herself obliged to part with all that constituted the already poor furnishings of the home. Anything goes, but the needs are still pressing. With nothing left to sell, she will ignore any concept of dignity and sell her own body. The mine continues to operate nonetheless. The film is worth especially by the first sequences which make burst the screen by their force and their realism. In their concern to transport the harsh, noisy, inhuman, destructive reality of the workers, the images manage to touch and convince the spectators, more than the (rather melodramatic) sequences of the degradation of family life. 16mm, black and white, mute

How is the relationship between dog and owner with us? what is this phenomenon of dog fighting…? This inveterate animal lover presented us yesterday with his short film Crocs urbains. Brilliantly produced, this 23-minute documentary plunged us into the urban barbarism of hound fights, a macho, phallic, clandestine world which, on the margins of society, features combat dogs programmed to kill, violent scenes which in no way condone violence. Against this backdrop of machismo, a luscious and charming doctor describes the suffering and mistreatment of these animals and calls for an end to this kind of barbarism!
