About this event

The manager of a solar panel factory in Belgium conducts a secret ballot vote among a unit of sixteen workers by which they decide to either renew or eliminate the job of their co-worker, Sandra. Each worker gets a substantial bonus if they vote to dismiss her, but lose it if they choose to re-hire her. The company bets on selfishness while Sandra has the weekend to argue her case to each of her co-workers. Can group solidarity triumph over rational self-interest embedded in capitalism? (Deux jours, une nuit, Jean-Pierre Dardenne, Luc Dardenne, Belgium/France/Italy 2014, 95 min., DCP, French, Arabic, and English with English subtitles)

A joint effort of the Dryden Theatre and the Rochester Labor Council, the Rochester Labor Film Series presents motion pictures celebrating workers around the world.
