Les lip, l'imagination au pouvoir Series: 1968: An International Perspective [April 29-May 14] Director: Christian Rouaud, Country: France, Release: 2007, Runtime: 119 The events of 1968 were felt in France for years afterward, especially in the rising militancy of the country's labor movement. Les Les Lip––L’imagination au pouvoir is a powerful and engaging study of this trend, capturing the groundbreaking Lip Watch Factory strike and worker takeover of 1973-75 using period footage and interviews with participants on both sides of the worker/management line. Director Christian Rouaud explores the complexity of the strike's development by carefully outlining the multiple and at times contradictory forces at work. He also clarifies the growing tensions during the strike between the workers and the CGT (the national French labor organization) as well as with the Gaullist government. Of particular interest is the role of the then-emerging Jacques Chirac in these events, a role he's publicly denied since the film's release.
