The tension between labour and profit in globalised, market-oriented economies is at the centre of French director Stéphane Brizé's new film 'Another World', the story of a plant manager who is asked by his bosses to lay off his own workers.

At home, his marriage is unravelling because of the pressures of his work. In the office, he is confronted by angry colleagues questioning his values and loyalties as he draws up a list of those set to lose their job. While his previous two films on the subject - also starring Lindon - looked at the employees-employer relationship from the point of view of the workers, this time it is the manager and his own inner conflict that take centre stage.
