At the Foot of the Tower

The series

On 25 September 2023, nearly one hundred people gathered on the forecourt of the Tamedia tower in Lausanne. The mobilisation responded to the announcement of collective redundancies affecting 28 positions in French-speaking Switzerland and 20 on the other side of the language border. Through speeches, placards and shared silences, this series observes a profession publicly expressing what it refuses to lose.
