Synopsis

In the 19th century in Switzerland, the Tribunal des Prud'hommes was established to resolve management and labor disputes via a special jurisdiction process. It delivers a service that is swift and free with straightforward, primarily oral procedures. For the first time in Switzerland, a camera crew has been allowed into the public galleries to film the Tribunal at work in Lausanne. The court reveals itself to be a social barometer, full of dramas great and small, and crystallizes tensions and upsets that are part of a rapidly changing, ever more brutal and complex world of work.
