The Robin Hoods of Energy

Short documentary on French civil servants who support people who cannot pay their electricity bills by re-connecting their electricity supply. In January 2010 the civil servant Dominique Liot was suspended from office for 28 days.

"For us, re-connecting the electricity supply is completely in line with the principles of the public services. (...) In the 21st century, it is not acceptable to cut off people's electricity supply just because they cannot pay for it" (Dominique Liot)
