The event
Travail, les limites
What does it mean to work when work itself puts us to the test? Through precarity, loneliness, dreams and resistance, four films question the limits of the working world and the power relations that run through it. Stories of people seeking their place, their dignity and, sometimes, a way to resist.
The films
Fantasma Neon
Fantôme du Néon

João is a delivery rider who dreams of owning a motorbike. He was told everything would be like a musical.

Vinoth, a young Sri Lankan refugee, has been living alone and working in Switzerland for a year. He looks for volunteer work to escape his loneliness, but no one is willing to accept his help.
Big Bang
