The Unemployment Club
Cableman
In Differdange, in the South of Luxembourg, six unemployed men decide to create the "Dole Club", whose rules forbid its members to work, even in the very unlikely event that they are offered a job. Geronimo, Théid, Frunnes, Sonny Boy, Abbes and Petz all agree to abide by the strict regulations of the club. In accordance with them, they manage to survive. But they can do it only on petty theft and other swindles, which is bound to end badly...
Eng Äerd
Director
If the entire world population lived like the average citizen of Luxembourg, eight planets of earth would be needed to provide sufficient resources for everyone. Eng Äerd presents long-term initiatives of Luxembourg citizens fighting against the depletion of natural resources. Different initiatives already in existence are presented by those who drive and supervise them. The film wants to encourage viewers to change their thinking, both in their private lives and at the level of associations, as well as from an economic and political point of view. It explores the motivations of these Luxembourgish environmentalists and shows that everyone can contribute to building a new healthier and more solidary society in harmony with nature and for the good of all.
