Popular front(s) : a space of struggle
It’s no coincidence that the main place for venting demands is the street; no coincidence if the powers that be are making the street increasingly inaccessible: its conquest is always the start of a victory of the right to be ourselves and to change ourselves by changing a society and its territory. The films we have chosen tell the story of citizens reclaiming these places, seizing power over what becomes a space of struggle, but also a place for self-assertion as a group and as an individual.
