Las nuevas tecnologías están transformando una ciudad relojera del siglo XIX en Suiza. Josephine, una joven trabajadora de una fábrica, produce la rueda de disturbios, que gira en el corazón del reloj mecánico. Expuesta a nuevas formas de organizar el dinero, el tiempo y el trabajo, se involucra en el movimiento local de los relojeros anarquistas, donde conoce al viajero ruso Pyotr Kropotkin.

In 1887, Peter Kropotkin stayed briefly in the Swiss Jura, fiefdom of the watchmaking industry and epicentre of the international anarchist movement. He would retain a strong impression of his encounter with the highly organised local workers, whose “equalitarian relationships and independent thought” he would praise in his diary. 140 years after the “conversion” of this man who was to theorise libertarian communism a little later on, Cyril Schäublin restages fragments of this diary read in Russian, in the current setting. A place in which his ancestors, who worked from generation to generation in the watchmaking manufactures of this region until their closure, still survive.
