A group of 30 unemployed Argentinian auto workers attempt to kick-start their dead careers. Following in the footsteps of others throughout the country, they set up shop in the desolate auto factory where they used to work, announcing their intentions to re-start the plant as a cooperative business, without the aid of bosses. To keep their plan alive, these radical thinkers must battle the former owners of the company, the government and the police. 2004, by Naomi Klein and Avi Lewis Free snacks and popcorn. 61541
