Labour
It is estimated that an average employee spends 14 % of his life at work, which is quite an impressive result. It might be a good reason to reflect and to celebrate International Workers’ Day a bit longer… That’s why we are announcing May as a Month of Labour! Chosen movies are related to the issues of work with all its efforts, scarification and frustration. Don’t leave today’s work for tomorrow… And don’t miss our Movie Nights !
