Summary
Paris, summer 1996. A procession of protestors is on the move, looking for a fortress from which to defend their rights. When Madjiguene Cisse, their Senegalese spokeswoman, leads them through the doors of Saint-Bernard church in the Goutte d’Or, the struggle can begin.
The month-long occupation culminates in a hunger strike and a siege that will draw the attention of a whole country and put a new category of citizens at the centre of the national debate: undocumented migrants.
