DESCRIPTION:See also:\nWhat we see is our own Face   (57:21)  (2010) - Turkey\nBy Ahmet 
 Özer \nThis film documents the resistance of the Tekel tobacco workers, 
 who won their struggle in court after spending nearly 3 months out on the 
 streets under a “tent city” they erected in downtown Ankara.  The 
 solidarity that emerged during the time workers slept, ate and discussed 
 politics in the bitter winter of snow and rain is documented. The workers 
 of Tekel come from different regions belonging to different ethnic 
 backgrounds and find real solidarity under class basis as they struggle for 
 their common rights against the government and privateers.\nThey join 
 together in the struggle against their contracting status that they have 
 been forced to accept.  They learn that the Prime Minister who they 
 supported is supporting this contracting out system to privatize the 
 company and their union leaders have also abandoned them to fight on their 
 own.\n\nhttp://www.roxie.com/\nhttp://www.laborfest.net/2010/Films.htm\nhttp://www.laborfest.net/2010/2010schedule.htm\n
