Introduction
Discussion with Abdellali Hajjat and John Nieuwenhuys
Synopsis
Moving through migrant workers’ struggles in 1970s France, Compter sur ses propres forces connects questions of housing, labour and racism with a wider anticolonial horizon. The film invites us to consider how different struggles come to recognise one another, and how these encounters might reshape the relationship between the university and the social worlds around it.
