Pas sans l'obéissance

When order no longer makes sense, what do we choose to obey?

Between strike-bound harbor docks and TV sets, the show investigates these tipping points. 1951, the Henri Martin affair, dockworkers refuse to take part in the Indochina War. 1962, at Yale University, Connecticut, Professor Milgram dissects our capacity to obey. 2009, in the midst of a security clampdown and the triumph of media power, that very same experiment resurfaces in the form of a TV game show — while a group of young people ponders the legacy of these stories that precede them.

"What if we told ourselves that disobedience is just another obedience, to another logic, another truth, what would that change?"
