Synopsis: 

In the mining area of Tunisia on January 5, 2008, a sit-in in front of the town hall of Redeyef marked the beginning of a civil disobedience movement, which lasted six months. The participants were teachers, unemployed and young people, all desperate. They created a grassroots movement yet unprecedented in Tunisian history, the “revolt of dignity”, which led three years later to the Tunisian revolution. What remains of this human adventure? Broken souls, open wounds, but also pride and dignity.
