Travailler loin de chez soi (1972)

Overview

With the support of short interviews with employees from the Lyon and Paris regions (Conflans Sainte-Honorine), as well as that of Pierre Sarger, architect and urban planner from Ivry, who discusses its transformation into a dormitory town, this program addresses the thorny issue of public transport for workers far from their workplace. Travel time, comfort in transport, its cost, its frequency, walking, all elements that harm the quality of life of employees and considerably limit their free time: this is because working conditions are almost as important as the work itself. The film includes beautiful shots of urban traffic (buses, suburban trains, cars), or pedestrians, and crowds walking, either in the street, in the metro, or leaving factories.
