| Series of five newsreel films produced in 2006/2007 around the RESF 13 network (Education Without Borders Network, 13th district of France: Bouches-du-Rhône). Since the strong mobilization on November 11th, 2006 at Marignane Airport against the deportation of Mr. Douibi, the 360° et même plus film collective has followed the RESF 13 network on different actions and initiatives. |

Created in 2004, the Education Without Borders Network (RESF) fights mainly by the side of undocumented families who live in France and have children going to school, for them to obtain residence permits and legal status. The network has become particularly active since June 2006, when the Interior Minister, then Nicolas Sarkozy, passed a bill to give legal status to certain undocumented families residing in France. |
