A few days in the life of the postal workers and customers at La Courneuve.
Réjane is a cleaning-woman in one of the tower-building in Val Fourré, a suburb near Paris. Following her, listening to her and watching her in action we learn what it means to be a woman of 45 and hanging by a thread. Balancing delicately between her crazy but charming personality, the barriers of poverty and unemployment, Rejane, a bit lost, smiles and moves away dancing "There is no problem !" We are sad at heart to be so close and so far from her.
1992, September. Val Fourré, Mantes-la-Jolie. A suburb near Paris. Watched by the crowd, the four towers in Val Fourré crash with a terrible noise. In a cloud of dust, journalists, statesmen (members of the government) and the people of the neighbourhood. A page is turned. People want to believe that things will be better tomorrow. It is a symbol that is blown up. Great projects are announced. A few months later, those who expressed their feeling at the time, are reflecting on the past events, as we watch and listen to their words, the present is taking shape.
