    An investigative thriller set in the world of nuclear power and corrupt politics, “La Syndicaliste” follows the true story of Maureen Kearney (Isabelle Huppert), the influential head union representative of a French multinational nuclear powerhouse.

    A deft navigator of elite political and financial circles, Maureen becomes a whistleblower when she discovers international backroom dealings, exposing secrets that shook the French nuclear sector. Fighting against government ministers and industry leaders, Maureen worked tirelessly to bring the scandal to light and defend thousands of jobs until she was violently sexually assaulted in her own home, seemingly targeted for her attempts to reveal the truth.

    As her attack is investigated, new elements create doubt in the minds of detectives and lawyers, and they begin to see Maureen not as a victim, but as a suspect. Surrounded by powerful enemies and unable to trust anyone, Maureen must fight to clear her name.

    “Maureen Kearney’s story is unbelievable. Played with an electric stillness by the great Isabelle Huppert … who can convey an ocean of feeling with the twitch of an eyebrow.” — Deadline

    “Derives its power from the knowledge that this shocking story actually happened.” — Screen Daily

    “A politically tinged back-room drama of shifting power hierarchies … Huppert taps into a level of vulnerability rarely seen throughout her vast filmography.” — Ion Cinema

    “La Syndicaliste” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre Dec. 15-20. Showtimes will be Friday, Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 15, 18 and 19 at 3:30 p.m.; and Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday, Dec. 16, 17 and 20 at 6:30 p.m.

    From Protest Signs to Missiles: Why Peace Needs Teeth
    .By Tommy Acosta

    As a child of the ’60s, I grew up hating war—protesting and demonstrating against them, uncovering as a writer the global military-industrial complex, and seeking peace with my pen. Through the years, I saw myself as a herald—someone who could help people, through my writings, liberate themselves from programmed ignorance and institutionalized stupidity. Well, now that I am in the third act of my life, my understanding of how the world works has changed.
