Day 2: Factory for the workers
An event
held at The Trinity Centre
on Saturday 22nd October. The event starts at 11:00.
Croatia, 2005. A machine tools plant is taken over by its workers. The only successful example of a factory occupation in post-socialist Europe. Ten years later, the rebellious employees behind the occupation strive to prevent a production shutdown. Sustainability depends on the sacrifices of the workers protecting their livelihood from the threats of a ruthless economy. For 5 years, director Srdan Kovacevic follows the inside story of the people who struggle to keep the once prestigious factory running. A decade later, can the slogan “Factory to the Workers” be kept alive, or is it just a dream?
