Longwy. February 1979. The factory in Chiers is to close down in the summer of 79 and Usinor-Longwy at the end of 1980. The “rescue plan” supposed to save the iron and steel industry has been adopted: over 20,000 employees will be laid off within 2 years. People in Longwy fight against dismantling because “life in Longwy is the iron and steel industry”.
