THE STORY OF SOULEYMANE's writer/director Boris Lojkine on how his film is concerned with the plight of all those working in the 'gig economy', with The Age's Jake Wilson: “There is no colleague, no boss, you’re alone with your phone. It’s not the problem of being undocumented, it’s the problem of the status of these workers. If they’re employees, then you have to give healthcare; if they have an accident, then you are responsible for them. But if they are independent, if they are self-employed, if they are freelancers, there is no social security for them. And this is a big fight, not only in France but worldwide.”
