“A compilation of 17 videos documenting the rebellion of precarious flexworkers and gives cross continental coverage of conflicts that have been kept invisible for too long: the occupation of the premises by McStrikers in Paris, the struggle for a union of fired Korean Telecom temporary workers, the impossible efforts of Bulgarian and Turkish textile workers to make 'clean clothes' for the Olympic dream. At the dark side of today's postindustrialist economy, millions of casualized young temps are stuck in 'non-standard' jobs, unable to make plans for the future, blackmailable because of the lack of union rights and excluded from basic social rights such as maternity, sick leave or the luxury of paid holidays. The emerging conflicts of rebelling Précaires are bringing a disruptive, socio-political identity into being. A new form of social self-representation is agitating across the continents and flexworkers, chainworkers, brainworkers, sexworkers and foreign-born workers starting to share their flexi-fights with a common strategy.
