\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Marker was a committed socialist, an unflagging champion of workers\u2019 rights and leftist causes, as seen in this program of works that depict scenes from Europe\u2019s class struggle. In French with English subtitles.<\/p>\n

2084<\/strong> (1984)
\nDirected by Chris Marker
\nRun time: 10min<\/p>\n

Marker commemorates the 100th anniversary of the French workers\u2019 rights movement with this cyber-punk sci-fi short set another 100 years into the future.<\/p>\n

Be Seeing You<\/strong> (1968)
\nDirected by Chris Marker & Mario Marret
\nRun time: 39min<\/p>\n

A 1967 worker\u2019s strike at a textile plant in Besan\u00e7on presages the rising anti-capitalist sentiment in France that would explode in full force a year later.<\/p>\n

Class of Struggle<\/strong> (1969)
\nDirected by the Medvedkin Group
\nRun time: 37min<\/p>\n

Upon learning that textile workers were unhappy with the portrayal in Be Seeing You, Marker furnished them with filmmaking equipment and basic technical know-how. The result is \u201cone of the finest examples of the politically engaged French documentary cinema of the late sixties\u201d (Film Comment).<\/p>\n
