Workers of the World, Unite!

October 25–31

 

In conjunction with our exclusive theatrical run of Stephen Maing and Brett Story’s acclaimed documentary UNION (opening October 25), the Gene Siskel Film Center presents cinema that kicks ass for the working class. Workers of the World, Unite! offers eight films that portray American organizers, unionizers, and labor rebels who speak up, speak out, and fight back against unfair working conditions and nefarious bosses in order to be treated (to quote Lily Tomlin’s character in 9 TO 5) “equally, with a little dignity, and a little respect.”
