Freedom of expression in a liberal world, this is not quite what one might imagine … “

One thing is certain: those who defend the film, even spend their evening in the pouring rain, to roll into town – “ pollute the expense of the CGT “, said Adrien – are neither regimented militants or rebels without a cause. Just gluers poster aspiring who want to defend a film, like others defended the film The 01 Year Gébé forty years ago. And that grant the right to have a beer when half the package of posters have been pasted.
