A woman patiently cleans her chimney and tidies up her domestic space: this is a daily toil, endlessly reiterated, yet not alienated. Around her unfolds an Irish landscape, and a superimposed text unveils its still topical story, marked by England’s domination, that even Thatcher’s death will not erase. A voice-over refers to a tale by the Grimm brothers, The Bremen Town Musicians. And from this childhood memory is delineated an analysis of its libertarian subtext, as well as a history of its avatars in the context of the upheavals of 19th century Europe.
