Pour que la Guerre s’Achève, les Murs Devaient s’Écrouler plot

This documentary looks back on the momentous events of the Belgian general strike in 1960, focusing here on the efforts of trade unionist Edmond and workers at the Cockerill-Sambre steel factory in Seraing to secretly publish a workers' newspaper between 1961 and 1969. Twenty years later, Edmond returns to the factory where he worked for years, a factory that consists of nothing but ruins.
