Film Synopsis

Julie is struggling to make a living when, not long after her arrival in the town of Romans in southeast France, she gets a job at a workshop that manufactures luxury footwear.  The work is rewarding and reasonably well paid, and for once Julie starts to feel secure in her life.  She meets a young lorry driver, Samy, who makes an easy conquest of her with his unsubtle charms.  Just when everything seems to be going well for Julie she hears rumours that the owners of the factory are planning to relocate in a bid to lower their production costs.  The news is soon confirmed and the workforce are up in arms.  The more militant employees band together in a frantic effort to keep their jobs, but Julie is unsure what to do.  Should she take an active stand against the planned relocation or should she keep a low profile so as not to antagonise her employers?  Samy knows which side he is on - why can't Julie make up her mind...?
