Just this crab.

Arrange everything.

For me it hurts me ...

... Think of all those poor bastards ...

... That they will starve.

But what do they complain?

The company pays them the house, heating, medical, ...

... What more do you want?

-Here is the pheasant.

Well, Camile.

With all these matters no ...

... These young people talked of marriage.

It is true.

Paul, are you happy?

And you, Cecile?

Have not heard much their boyfriends.

When we set the wedding date dao?

But his aunt, hopefully end the strike.

Enough to strike,

let's talk about love.

You are here.

Apparently revealed to you.

However I am willing to talk with you.

Well

What have you to tell me?

Are you?

A worker who has always been reasonable, ...

Monts ... a veteran ...

... Whose family works in the mine since the first stroke of pickaxe.

Tu leading the protest?

Sir, ...

... Because I am a quiet man ...

... That has nothing to reproach,

my colleagues elected me.

I'm listening to you.

We just want justice, ...

... We are tired of starving.

It's time to eat bread every day.

Lord knows we can not accept ...

... The new payment system.

They blame us for bad strut?

It is true.

We are dedicated to this work the hours required.

Pay us more and better anchored, ...

... Decico more time to wood ...

... Instead we strive to remove the coal.

The work has to be paid.

Lower the price of the trolley, ...

... And want to compensate you by paying the propping apart.

Can not be. We lose.

The company pocketed more than two cents per trolley.

That is the truth.

This is not right.

-It 's the truth.

If you speak did not get along together.

No, the truth is ...

... If you do petty provocations.

This is a plague that runs between the workers ...

... And corrupts even the older ones.

They promised you more butter than bread, ...

... Told you that now ye masters, ...

... Wrapped you with this international ...

... This army of bandits

think of destroying the society.

Misleading.

Not one miner had joined.

but if we require. filiaro everyone.

This depends on the company.

The company is a salvation for men, ...

... Is a mistake cause danger.

It spent

... In building colonies that yield no two percent

not to mention the pensions paid, not coal

... Neither of the drugs they give.

You look smart ...

... Dedicated to you to spread

these truths, ...

... Instead of you mix with guys like Rasseneur.

It makes me kind.

If you want to save the mine from socialist rot.

You can see the kid in your house.

It was he who pushed you to create this fund forecast?

If it were a savings fund and not ...

... A weapon of war against us ...

... Reprovaramos not its existence.

Warning you that the company ...

.. Want to carefully control the fund.

It is a new requirement.

Until now ...

... Had not demanded such control.

No. Our desire ...

... Is that the company fails to arrogate to our savior ...

... And give us what belongs to us: ...

... Who allocate profits.

It's normal to starve the workers ...

... To save the dividends of shareholders anonymous?

Who is stealing our bread?

Who goes down the mine?

Who is hungry?

Who works?

If the company has to make money ...

... You do, but not at the expense of workers.

Exactly.

He hoped that we would be accused of killing from hunger aldeia ...

... And live by their effort.

How can you say so many stupid things ...

... When you know the risks they face ...

... The capital invested in industries or mines?

A mine equipped

currently costs ...

... Un million and a half

or two million francs.

You know what it takes to get ...

... A mediocre benefit of that amount invested?

Not this account ...

... That many mining companies in France are in breach?

Yes, when the workers suffer, ...

... They also suffer.

The company has much to lose as you ...

... With this crisis.

She does not own wages, ...

... Has to be competitive ...

... Not to ruin.

Assigns blame to the facts ...

... And not the company.

But hear ye ...

... Ye will not understand?

They want us to believe ...

... That our situation can not improve ...

... But eat cookies every day.

Someday ...

... Workers will be able to have bread for all.

Sir, ...

... This is the only answer I can give us?

Very good.

So ...

... Shall we say to our colleagues who rejects our conditions.

No, do not reject anything.

I am an employee like you.

Here I have more power than the lowliest peon.

How is Jeanlin?

Thank you, Mr. Director.

Remains in hospital but is okay.

Poderam save the leg.

It was a hard lesson, ...

... But you are still defending the bad struts.

Reflect, friends.

a strike is a disaster for everyone.

You will die of hunger before a week ...

... Will you do then?

Trust in your conduct.

I am convinced ...

... That Monday, the latest ..

... Back to work.

However I am in favor of the strike ...

... We should have forced the company ...

... Without stopping.

Now that we started ...

... We can not quit until we have obtained justice.

Before dying to say that we have no reason.

They will die.

Do not wish death on anyone.

But if this lasts long, ...

... Die of hunger.

What brought you here?

I do not want to see you.

Mom, bring sugar and coffee for the boys.

I did overtime to think of them.

While Voreux of us starve on strike ...

... Those of Jean-Bart

continuing to work ...

... Revolt me.

Stop the repairs!

If it were not for Me.

I have no choice but to obey it.

Do not you realize how are things?

Anyway, it's done.

He or anyone else, whatever.

Everyone works at Jean-Bart?

Yes, all work.

Traitors!

If you come to stay, stay, ...

... It will not.

You are lucky to be with the small, ...

... If not give you a slap, I hardly know.

B*tch!

You give them coffee with my money?

Work for you?

Street, go!

I left it right now.

Beautiful craft to take care of your home ...

... While your f***ing

daughter opens legs.

And if the daughter is the mother that opens.

And you do not disgust you?

No, the Lord does not disgust.

Like it?

-Be careful Chaval.

Someday I will kill you.

-Try!

Try!

Come on,!

Come on, damn it!

What wild.

You're a pig.

Only a pig can have some ideas so dirty.

've Defects, but not this.

Only two men touched me ...

... A miner before he was fifteen years ...

... And then Maheu. Anyone else.

Where is this pig Maigrat?

Well ...

.. You come to pay your debts?

No, on the contrary.

We saw that we ask you fie again.

We do not have food ...

... Just want bread.

Tomais me by ...

... Ye that ye fie again.

Would you ruin me.

Have not you enough with all that ye me?

Do not you trust or a potato, ...

... Or a loaf of bread.

Go for a walk by the tent Verdonck, ...

... Or the bakery Carouble ...

... I bet you shop there now.

... A night with me in return

-F***er.

Before you prefer with the widow.
