Who are you?
Hello,
I'm 38 years old.
I grew up in Val de Loire
and spent my childhood
visiting castles,
which is probably why
I became a real estate agent.
I'd say I like my profession,
I like to try
to understand my clients,
their needs, and desires.
I feel like I have a real role
to play in people's lives.
Why are you applying?
Three years ago, my agency closed
so I joined a network
as a freelancer.
But the market is tense.
Many agents are grasping at straws.
The prices are exuberant.
That's why I pounced on your ad.
I didn't know about protection
through occupation.
I saw that it existed in Holland.
It's great
that it's coming to France.
It's the adventure I was looking for,
something with meaning,
to which I can fully commit.
Where do you see yourself
in five years?
Still working for you, I hope.
As a property manager for Anti-Squat,
with many buildings to manage
and responsibilities.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Sorry to disturb you,
but you weren't answering.
What do you want?
I want to know how you're doing.
I'm waiting for answers.
three months ago.
My son's wife is
six months along now.
They should be
able to move in.
Don't you have a family
that could help you?
The truce will end in two months.
I know.
We found a lawyer
and he told us
to fill an eviction demand.
Let's not reach that stage.
Do what you have to do.
It's insane.
Right?
It's amazing.
I told you so.
-Ready?
-Yes.
-Are you recording?
-Yes.
All good?
Eh, ADMA
Listen
I'm Adam, you know it
Show me the king
The one I have to dethrone
I know the network, the game
You got it
She's known me
Ever since I started kicking
I take off my cap
She recognized me
She's a subscriber
With texts and rhymes
That amaze you
I got money and show off
But I take the RER
I show up like COVID-19
Listen and stay manly
Take shelter, I'll destroy it all
I'm like their father
Spanking them
In this race, I'm ahead
I have to cope, I'm stubborn
Which one is your favorite castle?
Chenonceau.
I haven't been there.
I visited Chambord
with my nephews last year,
it's not too bad.
I'm looking for someone to manage
a building I just acquired.
The client is the BNG.
It's the first building
they entrust us with.
See the stakes?
We offer a contract
as a resident manager. To start,
a two-month trial period
at minimum wage. If it works out,
you'll get a permanent contract
as property manager.
With many buildings
and double the salary.
If it doesn't, we stop it all.
OK.
So, what's the role
of resident manager,
exactly? They must recruit residents,
help them settle in,
and make sure
they understand the rules.
To do so,
they must settle in with them.
Meaning?
The idea is to show
a maximum of presence.
It'd be only for the trial period.
Then, you can manage remotely,
but that would enable me
to assess your performance on site.
But you should know that managers
must follow the same rules
as residents.
You can't leave
for more than two days.
No more than two guests.
No parties, no animals,
and no children.
No children?
No, for safety and insurance.
We don't want families.
We're looking for young,
flexible people who can move quickly.
Your mother's here.
All good?
Go south
Turn left.
Hello.
Hello.
I work for Anti-Squat,
I manage the building.
I know who you are.
-Marko.
Nice to meet you.
Did you take a look around?
Not yet.
-Want to see the cafeteria?
-Yeah.
Follow me.
We placed the cupboards here,
and set up the pipes.
And a fridge.
That's nice.
And I created a living room space
over there.
So, people will live here, right?
Yes.
Hello.
Hello.
We'll do the interviews inside.
I won't be able to see everyone,
only those with complete files.
You must be part
of the European Union,
have an employment contract,
be single, and childless.
Sorry, ma'am, children are forbidden.
It's just for me.
They'll stay at my parents'.
I'm sorry.
I need this condo,
the truce is about to end.
Ma'am, do you have children?
-Do you have a green card?
-Ma'am, please.
Those who don't meet
the conditions can leave.
Excuse me?
Can we still see the place?
No, sir. That's not how it works.
I'm sorry.
Please, stay there.
Excuse me, sorry.
Stay in line.
I work with her.
Should you be doing this alone?
I didn't expect this.
For 200 euros...
-We've waited for two hours.
-Yes, I know.
You'll have to wait a bit longer, OK?
-You'll be fine.
-Please.
I know,
but let's calm down and listen.
Those who can pay
the guarantee can come in.
The others must leave.
I don't take checks or cards.
I have cash.
Come, I'll do the interviews inside.
Please.
Guys, come on!
Please.
Claire, 20 years old,
waitress and comedian.
Any employment contract?
Yes, her boss will hire her
this month.
She also does auditions.
You should be wary of comedians.
She made a good impression.
If you say so, I trust you.
OK.
Soraya.
A nurse
at the Bobigny university hospital.
She often works night shifts,
so I thought
she could be there during the day.
That's our target.
Yes, that's closer to what you want.
I know him.
Marko.
He's one of the workers
who worked on the building.
He meets all the criteria
and I thought
it could be useful
to have a worker among us.
Be careful to not mix everything.
He shouldn't expect to be paid
as soon as he does something.
Of course.
Guillaume, 27 years old,
a middle school history teacher.
OK, thank you.
I tried...
to create a group
that's coherent and balanced,
that gets along.
It can't become a collocation either.
I understand.
They must understand that
they are residents, and not tenants.
They protect
and maintain the building,
but it's not their home.
Right.
And the faster they get it,
the faster I'll convince my bosses.
We all have something
to gain from it.
Right, Thomas?
It's like you're going camping.
I'm scared I'll be cold.
I'll take what I need, just in case.
Is that for me?
What is it?
You're crazy.
It's reconditioned.
So what?
It's beautiful.
I have many friends who have it.
Let's go over the rules again.
Are you listening?
After school, come home right away
and call me, OK?
Have a snack,
do your homework, take your time,
and then you can go out with friends,
but don't stay out.
Go to their place.
You can also invite them,
but not more than two.
I don't want parties here.
And no lies or scheming.
I can tell when you're lying.
I know.
For dinner, you'll eat
either at Aurel's, Jules's,
or here, but in any case,
be home before 9 p.m.
Then call me. We'll talk for a bit.
No more screen time.
You can listen to music,
but at 10 p.m., it's bedtime.
Is everything clear?
I got it.
And brush your teeth.
Mom...
I know you.
OK.
Are you a dealer now?
Very funny. That's an advance
on my salary.
I filled the fridge.
And this is for you,
if you need to buy something.
Thanks.
Well...
When are you coming home?
Friday.
My big boy.
Don't touch my stuff.
Tell me if there's an issue.
But don't come in when I'm not here.
Respect the rules
and we won't have to.
And what's this? "First warning"?
Is this a school?
You signed the contract.
You know what happens
after three warnings.
You must respect the rules,
or I'll be the one in trouble.
I'd really like to create
a bond of trust with you.
That should be possible, no?
Moussa, is that possible?
Cake, anyone?
-Thanks.
-Gladly.
I'm good, thanks.
I also wanted to talk about
the green spaces and garden.
It'd be nice if we could tend to it.
Are we paid for that?
No, you'll be doing it for you.
You can enjoy it
on sunny days, it'd be nice.
I already work 70 hours per week.
I won't work for you for free.
It's like concealed work.
That's right.
You should do it.
When renting a house,
you maintain your garden.
You don't ask the owner
to come mow the lawn.
We're not tenants,
so it's different.
You might kick us out in a week.
We could vote.
It's non-negotiable.
The contract says
you must maintain the common parts.
If you won't respect the rules,
you can leave.
Did you eat well?
Yeah, I ate at Jules's.
What did his parents say?
Well...
His mother said you abandoned me.
Yeah, but she doesn't work.
So she won't abandon Jules for sure.
I saw that you were late today.
Stop policing me.
Be careful.
Now's not the time to get noticed.
Well...
Will you rap for me?
No.
Why?
I love it, you have a great flow.
I don't sing for you.
I won't sing for my mother.
Who are you rapping for, then?
You really like your car.
Yes, it's my work tool.
-Need a lift?
-Yes, that's nice.
Are you sure
it's OK?
My pleasure.
Did you sleep well?
It's the North Pole here.
We shouldn't die from the cold
because we pay 200 euros.
We're not social outcasts.
I agree, I'll report it.
Right, report it.
What is it?
I just made sure
Soraya was settling in nicely.
-Hello.
-Hello.
We're just getting acquainted.
That's OK, right?
Absolutely.
I'll go.
No, I was leaving.
I have papers to grade.
Guillaume, here.
Thanks.
Come in.
I just worked 72 hours,
I'm exhausted.
Guillaume is a bit stressed.
His pupils are rough.
So I gave him something to help.
Do you want tea or something?
-No, thank you.
-Really?
What a nice space.
Thanks.
I just got my things.
They were in a storage unit
for a year.
People tried to stay
in the storage unit to sleep,
but they were monitored.
Did you sleep in a storage unit?
No, I shared a guard room
with a colleague for eight months.
But it's better here.
However, you can't keep
the microwave.
You can't cook in the rooms.
I don't want to disturb people
in the middle of the night.
I don't know,
you don't have to tell anyone.
I'm sorry, Soraya.
Come here.
-What?
-This is Moussa.
That's Soraya, the nurse.
This is Guillaume, the teacher.
This is Marko.
He's Romanian.
I feel like there's something
between Soraya and Guillaume.
So what? It's their private life.
So you're policing them.
What?
You're not helping them,
you're policing them.
No, there are no cameras
in their rooms.
It's just as well.
Who are these guys?
What are you doing here?
-You can't be here.
-What?
Leave.
Who is she?
OK, she left.
Claire?
Claire?
Turn off the music, please.
Who's in charge of the music?
Are you in charge of the music?
My phone! What is this?
Did you turn the music on?
Who are you?
Turn the music off.
There's no music.
Don't touch us.
-Give it.
-Don't touch my phone.
Don't touch my phone.
Turn off the music.
There's no music.
There's no music.
No!
Please, not my speaker!
Let go of me. Don't touch me.
Don't you get it?
What's this nonsense?
This is my space,
I'm not disturbing anyone!
Don't you understand the rules?
Rules my a*s...
No parties!
No more than two guests!
-But this is my space!
-What's this?
Don't piss me off.
Chill, calm down.
Turn this off.
Turn it off!
Turn this speaker off!
Turn it off!
-Turn it off!
-This isn't forbidden!
Turn it off!
Leave.
Get out.
Don't touch me.
We're not hurting anyone.
Why are you doing this?
What are you doing?
I won't use it.
I just want you to leave, OK?
Calm down.
sh*t!
You're insane!
I'm sorry.
They're totally high.
Claire doesn't look good.
Go home, I'll handle it.
It's fine.
Sorry, ma'am.
Miss, is everything OK?
All good, they're going home.
Anti-Squat is having a party.
Not only smoking cigarettes.
They're not from the building.
They were here by mistake.
Are you the boss?
Do you sleep in the boss' office?
Why do you care?
I know the building,
it was squatted before.
We took care of it for the BNG.
I heard you're cheaper than us.
But are you as efficient?
Is that a threat?
You're the threat.
If this works well,
I won't work anymore.
Are you OK?
-Come, let's go home.
-You're not my mother.
Come on, the party's over. Go home.
Come on, be nice.
I'm pregnant.
How far along?
Two months, I think.
Why didn't you tell me?
Would you have accepted me
if I told you?
Have you seen anyone?
You can't drink in that state.
I don't care.
I don't even know
if I want to be pregnant.
This isn't the right place
to be pregnant.
It's better than the streets.
You still have a bit of time,
but it will be obvious soon
and you won't be able to hide it.
You won't be able to stay.
Try to find a solution.
Will you help me?
Yes, I will.
Next week, I have an audition
for an action movie.
I might finally make it.
Who knows?
Who is it?
Mom, open.
What are you doing here?
-You followed me?
-I was scared for you.
No, I am scared for you.
What's this noise?
It's a guy that walks around
with an ax.
He makes sure everyone is asleep.
Your shoes.
Go hide.
Quick.
Quick.
Sorry, I thought you weren't here.
I was sleeping.
I'm sorry.
All good?
Yes, I'm fine.
I came to see
if you settled in nicely.
You don't have much stuff.
I won't stay here for long.
Did you see the garden?
Yes, I did. It's great.
But it's still messy.
What happened last night?
I've already talked to Claire.
She got it. I gave her a warning.
Judith didn't trust her
from the start.
You'll have to kick her out.
What?
We can't kick her out like this,
it's against the rules.
What, will she get a lawyer
and sue us?
She doesn't have much,
she'll squat at a friend's.
We must strike
or the others will do the same.
They didn't say a thing.
It didn't affect them.
They'll be the ones partying soon.
Can't we give her a second chance?
It's part of the job.
If you can't kick her out,
I won't keep you.
Show me around?
-Where is this?
-In the south, I was on vacation.
Why haven't you visited in so long?
Here comes the boss.
-Good evening.
-Hi.
Good evening.
Claire, can I talk to you?
Yeah, I got it.
Well, bye everyone.
Will you kick her because of a party?
Won't you speak up?
Isn't it shocking to you?
Come to my place, Claire.
Stay as long as you like.
Is that forbidden?
You have one week
before you have to go.
Where are you going?
Nowhere.
I have nowhere to go, you know it!
I said I'd help.
We'll find solutions.
Let's search together.
There are shelters and centers,
we'll contact them.
I wouldn't like to be in your shoes.
You could've made an effort.
What?
What are you wearing?
It's fine.
Everything else is dirty.
-Good evening.
-Hi.
You came, in the end.
Hi, Manon.
So, you live alone.
Yes.
That sounds cool.
It's fine.
Want to see my room?
If you want.
Awesome.
It's cool that you're here. Come.
-Hi.
-How are you?
All good?
It's quiet.
Right? We're so lucky.
Being patient is worth it.
Tell me, how are you?
I'm fine.
No, tell me more.
How is it going with Adam?
Do you miss each other?
What do you think?
Don't feel guilty.
It's funny,
it feels like you think the opposite.
Why?
You think I'm an unworthy mother
who abandoned her son.
Not at all.
Why are you on the defensive so much?
Because I know you.
Go, speak your mind.
Well, 14 years old is still young.
I couldn't leave Manon all alone.
Do you think I like being alone?
That I'm not scared for him?
What does Adam think of all this?
He understands. He's smart.
And I'm doing this to protect him.
That's what matters.
If that works for you...
It doesn't.
But we're adapting.
So, here we are.
Why were you there, Adam?
Now's the time to explain.
I joined the blockade.
Why?
To fight the high school reform.
And Parcoursup.
What's Parcoursup?
A tool to enroll in colleges.
We must choose
what we want to do later.
But this is
for high school students, right?
You're 14, you still have time.
No, I don't.
They want us to choose in 10th grade.
It's totally dumb.
Don't talk like that.
No, this is interesting.
Do you talk about it at home?
No, not at all.
But we will now.
So, instead of going to class,
you participate in the blockade.
Why set the trash cans on fire?
To show that we're angry.
Why are you angry?
You must understand
how serious this is.
I decided to expel you
for three days.
Do you understand?
How is it going at home?
We're fine.
We're in a transition period,
but we're fine.
Did you get it?
No one can see you.
-OK?
-OK.
So when you come home,
stop here, call me,
and wait for my signal.
Then, go up the back stairs.
Yes.
Yeah, you know that.
Mom, I'm going.
I'm late. I was waiting
for Moussa to leave.
I must go.
-Do you have money left?
-Yes, I'm good.
-See you.
-Give me a hug.
Come on.
Guillaume, could you please help us?
No, thanks. I already helped.
We'll never manage.
Look at that.
How did the math exam go?
I arrived late.
I didn't have time to finish.
I was annoyed.
What happened?
The RER, as usual.
I got stuck because of strikes.
You need to leave earlier.
I won't leave at 5:30.
GSP SECURITY
-Hello.
-Hello.
Is there trafficking at Anti-Squat?
How so?
Young people from the ghetto
are hanging out nearby.
Should we talk to them?
No, thank you.
Moussa!
Give me the money.
-Moussa.
-What?
It's forbidden to work here.
Who's she?
Are you a cop?
Is that your girl, Moussa?
Come on, shut up.
Is that your girl?
What is it?
Will I get a warning
because I'm selling sneakers?
Will you kick me out
like the comedian?
I know what I have to do, OK?
Come on. How about a pair?
What's your size?
I don't wear sneakers.
Everybody wears sneakers.
They're so pretty.
I swear, they're insane.
Magnificent.
Shoes like this cost
at least 150 euros.
He told me 200.
What a liar.
Seriously, how much
did you pay for them?
I got them for free.
Can you put down your phone, please?
Adam, are you listening?
I'm writing a rap.
About what?
People's lives.
Want to hear it?
5:00 a.m., one hell of a waking
Moussa is already full on
All his senses are alert
He goes all out
Chasing money
He's a private hire taxi
A coffee to stay awake
He'll surely be exhausted
And the nurse
Whom I call the lady in white
Is deep in her thoughts
It's obvious
She doesn't have much time
Working many extra hours
She comes home late
When she comes home
Moussa's leaving for work
We're truly interested.
When will the condo be available?
Starting next month.
We just need to clean a bit first.
That's perfect.
The issue is that
I already have candidates
that meet all the criteria.
Yes, I guessed so.
But I'll sign my permanent contract
this month
and my salary will be worth
three times the rent.
This is a real heart-stopper for us.
We visited many,
but we really like this one.
Right, Adam?
Yes, that's true.
You could put our file
on top of the pile
and keep the others just in case?
As soon as I sign,
I'll bring everything.
I need to think about it.
If this can help...
There you go.
Keep it.
At least, I won't be late anymore.
-Yes.
My daughter went there.
How is it going?
It's cool.
The atmosphere's good.
I'm sure it is.
Come on, ma'am,
not only files matter.
Feelings matter too.
I'll think about it.
OK.
Come closer,
you're giving me vertigo.
Is that OK?
Yes, go ahead.
5:00 a.m., one hell of a waking
Moussa is already full on
All his senses are alert
He goes all out
Chasing money
He's a private hire taxi
A coffee to stay awake
He'll surely be exhausted
And the nurse
Whom I call the lady in white
Is deep in her thoughts
It's obvious
She doesn't have much time
Working many extra hours
She comes home late
When she comes home
Moussa's leaving for work
When I leave
There's this teacher
Heading out at the same time
He never smiles and yet
I can tell he's a good guy
When I see him on the platform
Waiting for the RER
He looks so depressed
I hope he won't k*ll himself
And that one not following the rules
Does everything to mess it up
But when she gets kicked out
I see her drown in her own issues
She tries to cope
What a f*cking mess
But what can I say
It is what it is
It's not all sad moments
Come to my building
You'll see real people's lives
All those who struggle
The galley sl*ves, the residents
Come to my building
You'll see real people's lives
All those who struggle
The galley sl*ves, the residents
Real people's lives
Those who work hard
Real people's lives
Those who survive
Those who leave early
And come back late
Those who fight
To get by
It's insane work.
Did you think it'd only take
an afternoon?
Moussa's here.
Moussa! Beer?
Moussa can be loud,
but he's not mean.
He makes money for his siblings.
He's... How do you say it?
Family support?
That's what he said. Family support.
What about you?
I don't know.
But I'm not a real father.
Fathers don't see their children
twice a year.
But I'll go home, and build a house.
That's why I'm here and saving money.
-Where would that be?
-Calarasi.
Between Bucharest and the Black Sea.
It can't be worse than this.
Look how we're living.
We accept everything.
We shut up.
Even Moussa. He's got a big mouth,
but he's staying.
I think it's best if I leave.
Stay. I didn't say that against you.
I have a son too.
Adam.
He's 14.
Does he stay with his father?
No, there never was a father.
He left when I got pregnant.
For a long time, I thought he'd call,
but he didn't.
So you raised him alone.
Yeah. We're a good team.
Where is he?
He's at my mother's
while I try to find
a stable situation.
Regional and national,
day and night, I repeat,
day and night, I do it all,
double glazing, painting...
They broke it all in 15 days.
I've had enough.
It's all about squatting,
when we don't have wh*res everywhere.
What should I do?
I invested a lot of money.
I want to throw it all away.
Sir, look carefully.
Go ahead, look.
Squatting is like mites: invisible
until it's too late.
Miseries.
They break the cameras.
The security guards
racketeer us. The cops don't know
what to do.
So, what can we do?
I get it.
What did you do?
I managed, with some friends.
Manu militari.
It was rough.
I think Anti-Squat
is the answer to your problems,
Mr. Morand.
Take a look at the numbers.
A security company costs you
20,000 euros per year,
with random results.
Anti-Squat will cost you 5,000 euros,
for guaranteed efficiency.
And residents,
on top of protecting the place,
will fix it too.
-For free?
-Yes.
And that's priceless.
I'm definitely interested.
As soon as the mortgage is lifted,
I'll sell.
Very well.
How long until they leave?
One week.
You did great.
You're a great sales rep.
Thank you.
This one was easy though.
I get these people.
They worked their whole lives
and defend what they built.
He reminded me of my father.
What does he work with?
He's a car distributor in Aurillac.
Well, he was. He just retired.
Did you grow up there?
Until I finished high school.
Then I went to business school,
and left for Amsterdam.
I stayed there for seven years.
What did you do?
In Amsterdam? What do you think?
I worked in a coffee shop.
Seriously?
For seven years?
I even created my own weed brand,
Purple Paradise.
With many products derived
from herbal tea and incense.
It worked well.
Sadly, I fell out with my associate.
I ended up in trouble.
And I didn't want to come back
after a failure.
That's when Anti-Squat hired me.
OK.
Is that what you smoke all day,
Purple Paradise?
No, that's CBD.
You don't believe me?
Try it.
What about Judith?
Judith...
She wants to sell the building.
What?
Yes, that's her strategy.
She says she'll convince her bosses
if she sells it fast thanks to us.
What about the residents?
They've been there
for barely two months.
They have six months,
it's in their contract.
If we rehouse them,
we're still good legally.
Where would we rehouse them?
In that hotel,
that's quite convenient.
What about me?
Listen.
This doesn't change anything
for you. We'll keep you.
But I'll have to renew your temporary
contract until they sell.
Are you kidding me?
No.
That wasn't the plan.
-I know.
-You said two months.
I did everything.
You said you'd hire me.
It's just a setback.
It won't change anything.
It changes everything.
I won't lock myself up
in a crappy hotel in the country.
You tricked me.
You don't have to,
you can go home.
Hello?
What?
Don't move, I'll be right there.
All good?
-Where are we?
-Melun.
Stop the car.
Stop it now.
-I need to find a spot.
-Stop!
Mom!
Mom!
-Open it.
-Let me out!
Open it!
You're quite a nervous family.
Are you OK, sweetie?
They ran after me.
They forced me to get in.
We didn't know he was your son.
And he wrung my wrist.
Don't you ever touch my son.
Does the BNG know
that he's living with you?
You better shut up.
Let me speak, I'll handle it.
Hello.
Hello.
Judith warned me.
I looked so dumb when I told her
I didn't know you had a son.
Why didn't you tell me?
Would you have hired me?
It's dangerous and you know it.
Who's it dangerous for?
For us, or for Anti-Squat?
For everyone.
Give me my contract and we can move.
I told you I can't.
Either you find a solution
or you leave.
You have one week.
What will you do?
Kick us out?
Stop that.
I'm not responsible for this.
You put yourself in this situation.
I was very clear.
Moussa, your vegetables
are mixed enough.
I swear they are.
-My head hurts.
-Enough, Guillaume.
Sorry, I graded papers until 3 a.m.
Hello.
This is Adam.
-Hello.
-Hi.
Hello, Adam.
I was just told that
the building will be sold
and the visits start tomorrow.
Anti-Squat offers to rehouse you
in a hotel in the country,
one and a half hour from Paris.
Wait,
I thought we had
six months here, it's
in the contract.
Apparently, they don't care.
-When did you hear this?
-Just now.
I'm in the same situation as you.
They exploited us,
and now, they're kicking us out.
That's logical.
They'll even sell it for more money.
Right, with the added value
of overworked people
that weren't even paid
for their hard work.
QED.
I won't go to the countryside.
When do we have to leave?
We don't have to.
What are they going to do?
Kick us out by force?
What do you propose?
We occupy the building.
We ask to be rehoused
in good conditions
and assert our rights.
Anti-Squat will have to refer
to a judge to evict us.
And that can take months.
In the meantime,
we stop paying our 200 euros,
resist, and negotiate.
I agree.
Me too.
We must organize ourselves...
What are you playing at?
You police us, kick us out,
then want us to squat.
What's your goal?
I was conned just like you.
I have nowhere to go.
I'm alone with my son.
Moussa, we must work together,
or we can't win.
Win what? What are you talking about?
Should we hold a protest
in the roundabout?
"The residents are angry
at Anti-Squat"?
No one gives a sh*t about us.
And I never trusted you.
It's not against you, man.
We all have sh*t to deal with.
What should we do, concretely?
This is the building.
It was built in the 1990s.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Hello.
Enough, Thomas.
Shall we? Let's start the tour.
I personally really like the patio.
It's airy.
Here's the former cafeteria,
which was converted
into a co-living space,
and can also be used
as a coworking space.
Hello.
Hello.
Would you like some pie?
No, thank you.
-Enjoy.
-Thank you.
What's going on?
Why is it locked?
I don't understand.
I thought the residents
couldn't claim the spaces.
Could we see the management floor?
Of course.
So, management.
Why are rooms locked? Is this a joke?
I lost control of the building.
Thanks for the tour.
-Listen...
-We'll talk about it later.
I don't know what happened.
-It's fine.
-I'll fix it.
What do I look like? She's my sister!
Why are you doing this?
The residents are taking
the building hostage.
To denounce their exploitation.
And they want to be housed
in good conditions.
Are you their spokesperson now?
No. I just want my contract.
and you betrayed me.
What's your exam about?
The occupation,
collaboration, and Resistance.
Have you reviewed it?
Not really.
What do you remember?
I'm not really sure.
Teach said we shouldn't judge
and that we can't know
what we would've done.
I think it's good to wonder about it.
You're right.
That's what history is for.
I don't know. What would you
have done in their stead?
Most were neither Resistance fighters
nor collaborators.
They endured the occupation
and tried to keep on living.
I would've been like them.
Right.
I don't know, I think it's cowardly.
I don't really agree.
Good evening.
Is it a family dinner tonight?
Is Mom cooking?
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Rebel and break the chains
Holding you down
I live among the clouds
In my 13-floor tower
Share the rage
Of those who live locked in a cage
Ever since I was young
I used my head to write pages
I get inspiration
From my passing through this world
Take a close look
At this guy from the Z3
This who I am
And who I'll always be
I spent time in the halls
And staircases
Or kicking a ball
Against reinforced concrete walls
My street is a maze
It has no entrance or exit
No help
No emergency exit
To escape it
In my yard, I k*ll time
Not talking about anything
It's a never-ending story
That starts over every day
My life's about throwing
Words filled with truth
I'll hit your hearing system
If you listen hard enough
Reflection is the main element
Of my expression
My vision is real
It's far from being fiction
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Each step is a vision
That knocks you out
I have my vision of the world
So give me yours
Rebel and break the chains
Holding you down
I only crave sardines, lately.
It's weird.
For me, it was artichokes.
Can I stay the night?
You haven't found a place?
I went to the audition
for the action movie.
I did three runs.
In the end, we were just two,
and they saw I was pregnant.
So they kept the other girl.
You'll get other roles.
Yeah.
I ran into the guys
from GSP security.
What did they say?
They asked me where I was going.
I told them to f*ck off.
They followed me.
They told me the building was a mess.
What's going on?
I'll explain.
OK.
You look tired.
You should sleep.
Can I go back to my room?
How old is your son?
Fourteen years old.
You had him young.
Mine are nine and six years old.
Thomas has no children.
He never managed to do
what was expected of him.
That will teach me
to mix work and family.
He's so angry at you
that he can't even think anymore.
I had to convince him that
we could find a solution together.
We're in the same boat, right?
Your contract.
As a property manager.
That's what you wanted.
We can say you really fought for it.
When all's fixed,
I will entrust Anti-Squat
with five new buildings.
Thomas doesn't know.
I'd like you to manage them.
Why?
Because I'm the one who decides.
Can we rehouse the residents?
No, we can't do that.
Or all the residents
will lock their doors
and squat,
and our work would lose meaning.
I want everybody gone in three days.
I can't just kick them out like this.
I understand. It's delicate.
But you put us in this situation,
so you should fix it.
And if you call associations
or reporters,
we'll sue you.
You could squat for a few more weeks,
and we'll cut the water, electricity,
and you'll be evicted.
Is that what you want for your son?
Think about it.
There are many ways
to make people leave.
Thank you.
Is that all?
That's all I have.
We don't do this for fun.
I must pay my guys.
I'm no Judith Jaron.
I knew your thing wouldn't last.
They still need guys like us.
We must turn off
the security cameras.
It's already done.
And your son shouldn't be there.
Leave the door open.
If they all behave, it will go well.
What?
I said I don't want any violence.
We'll just make them want to leave.
Don't touch anyone, OK?
-Did you get it?
-Yes.
Hi, it's Mom.
I got my contract, sweetie.
They'll rehouse the residents.
It's over, we won.
We'll leave the building.
I want you to sleep
at Jules's tonight.
I don't want to take
any more risks, OK?
I'll pack our things.
See you tomorrow.
Call me back when you get this.
Love you.
There, it's finally ready.
This time, I found real bortsch.
The real deal.
A ciorba
without bortsch is no ciorba.
Taste it,
that's what gives it a sour taste.
It's good.
Are you OK?
Yes, I'm just tired.
This way.
Come on! Wake up, everyone!
Come on! Wake up!
Adam?
What's going on?
If you hide,
nothing will happen to you.
Go hide!
-Adam?
-Get out!
Get out!
Come on!
Stop!
Stop!
Adam!
This isn't your home!
-f*cking b*tch!
-I'm sorry.
Mom?
Adam!
Who are they? Security guards?
They'll leave, don't worry.
Stay here, OK? Don't move.
Don't move, I'll be back.
Mom...
Don't move!
You'll see! Get out!
Get out of here!
Get out!
We have to leave!
They hit Claire.
Claire?
Claire!
Call an ambulance.
We'll take her
to the clinic in Noisy-le-Sec.
You can call in two hours
to get an update.
Thank you, sir.
So?
They performed surgery
on her in the ER. The fetus died.
Her parents will pick her up
in the afternoon.
Why was she there?
Did you know she was pregnant?
How far along?
Four months.
Judith and I had a talk.
We don't want word
about this accident to spread
or we'll all suffer from it.
It'll turn against me,
and I'll turn against you.
We must stay united.
Do you get it?
You must settle
on an agreement with Claire.
Meaning?
You can offer her 10,000 euros.
Would you agree?
You should negotiate.
I think you can get more.
Anti-Squat asked the security guards
to throw us out.
They didn't want to throw us out.
They just wanted to scare us.
Did you know?
No.
What will happen to you?
Will they keep you or fire you?
If you agree, they'll keep me.
So, if I take the 10,000 euros,
you'll get your contract,
and everyone's happy.
When they told me I'd lost the baby,
I felt relieved and good.
Like...
Like a weight was lifted off,
you know?
And then, I felt so empty.
I need a resident manager
to manage this building
the BNG entrusted us with.
The role of a resident manager is
to recruit residents
and make sure
they understand the rules.
To do so,
they must settle in with them.
Are you interested?
Totally. I spent a year
in collocation in Stockholm,
I loved the experience.
This is no collocation.
You'll be a temporary resident.
The manager must follow
the same rules as the residents.
You can't leave
for more than two days.
No more than two guests.
No parties, no animals, no children.
It's perfect.
No children?
Of course not.
I won't have children anytime soon.
I want to fully commit to my career.
I want to prioritize my choices.
For me, the golden rule is
to not have any ties,
so I can adapt to any situations
and can take up challenges
like this one.
This post is ideal for me.
There you go, sir.
You now have
a beautiful apartment facing south,
with a clear view.
You can have breakfast
on the balcony.
And you can even hear
your school's bell.
What about the residents?
Did you hear from them?
Where are they?
You only thought of yourself.
You betrayed them.
I did this for us, Adam.
What does that mean?
"It's us or them," is that it?
Yeah, that's it.
It's disgusting.
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
Be careful.
And go to class.
Don't worry.
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
We are angry high schoolers!
We will stand up for ourselves!
HIGH SCHOOLERS ARE ANGRY
