PRECARITY

Concept & Realisation: FRANCESCA BRIA, TORA KROGH, LIZE DE CLERCQ

Precarity literally means being forced to beg and pray to keep one's job. It is the exclusion of whole generations and soon the rest of society from social rights.
'We are the precariat. We are hireable on demand, available on call, exploitable at will, an fireable at whim. We have become skillfull jugglers of jobs and contorsionists of flexibility. We are agitating with a common strategie to share our fights.'
The compilation of 17 videos intends to connect different networks of precarious workers across the continents. It is a toolbox to investigate about the increasing precarization of our existence.
