The Contis

For the 1,120 Continental workers, the closure of the plant came as a shock! Determined to face up to their destiny, they decide to do battle alone against the mighty multinational. They used every possible means, avoided all the traps and learned a lot about themselves. The human adventure goes beyond news headlines, revealing a tribe facing a challenge where their livelihoods are at stake. Their view of work, society and the crisis is both pertinent and lucid. Part documentary, part fiction, they play their own roles.
