Synopsis

The "Incendie" of the title refers to men and women who set fire to themselves in order to finally make their voices heard. In a France Telecom car park, in front of a job centre or in the high school yard, these are desperate acts of contestation against the hopelessness of the world of work. Voices of witnesses, friends and family are contrasted with the official discourse. Is suicide a solution? Isitthe only solution?
