Movie-screening of OVER THE EDGE
(directed by Jonathan Kaplan, 95min., USA, 1979)
+ brief talk about the struggle against youth-prisons in France

In 1978, more than 110,000 kids under 18 were arrested for crimes of vandalism in the USA. Over the Edge shows a teenage rebellion against all authorities. It's fiction but the story is based on true incidents that occured during the 70's in a suburban community.
This event will be an occasion to make a brief presentation in solidarity with four imprisoned persons being accused of having vandalized youth-prison offices near Toulouse (France) on july 5th, 2011. They are imprisoned since last november 15th.
