Voir - Juger - Agir : L'histoire de la JOC au Québec explores the overlooked history of the Jeunesse Ouvrière Catholique (JOC), a grassroots labor movement deeply rooted in Quebec's working-class neighborhoods since the 1930s. Through powerful testimonies, never-before-seen archival footage, and expert analysis, the film reveals nearly a century of youth-led social activism driven by a pursuit of justice and solidarity. From church basements to feminist and labor struggles, this thoughtful and politically engaged documentary looks back at the lasting impact of the JOC and its decisive role in the upheavals of the Quiet Revolution.
