SYNOPSIS:

The story begins after the fight.

What impression does a revolt leave on those who have lived through it?

The impact of an event can be heard through a progressive score played over time. By following the intersecting itineraries of Gilets jaunes for several years after the movement, the film questions the evolution of their relationships to the world, politics, violence, otherness or social boundaries.

The struggle also leaves its mark on the inner world, which sometimes upsets and sometimes frees, and which reveals itself in relationships with work, family, the spoken word and oneself.

A historian and a sociologist echo these traces with those of other movements that have marked history, such as the Paris Commune or the Spanish Indignés.

Through the intimate and the collective, the film questions the extent to which social struggles can transform us and become emancipatory.
