Air to Breathe (Documentary with english subtitles)
How tó organize and fight in the car industry. A look back with a film and discussion with the workers activist Wolfgang Schaumberg

15 years have passed since the Opel-workers in Bochum stopped the production in 2004 in a Wildcat Strike: After six days their strong arms had hit the world market production hard, several plants of the parent company GM stood still.

The GoG has been an active group since 1972 as part of the workforce at the Opel plant in Bochum for decades. They were from IG Metall (Union) and kept active in favour of the workers, using the possibilities auf the German Labour law as well as several wild strikes,  for the persistent struggle for daily reductions in working hours, the attempt to establish a link between the GM workforces in Europe and finally against the closure of the company, the colleagues have left no stone unturned in order to wrest concessions from the company and fight the capitalist normal operation at Opel.

In order to make these experiences accessible, the GoG colleagues commissioned labournet.tv to make a film about the history of the GoG and the Bochum Opel workforce. Wolgang Schaumberg has been Opel worker an still regularly meets with his GoG collegues.

Wolgang Schaumberg: Former Opel Worker, GoG member, founding member and part of the association’s board of Forum Arbeitswelten.

Karsten Weber: Industrial electrician, film maker, member of Forum Arbeitswelten, with a political focus on precarious work.
