Live from Gennevilliers for the launch of the 40th winter campaign of Restos du Coeur

The 13/14 is installed under the large white marquee placed in the heart of the Parc des Sévines in Gennevilliers. A marquee set up for a few weeks in this working-class, communist town north of Paris where the first collection initiated by Coluche was carried out.

All around us under this marquee, the history of the Restaurants is displayed: testimonies, press articles from the time, to tell the story of 40 years of fight against precariousness. It is also a mirror of society and its fractures which we talk about for an hour with our guests:

• Murielle Dappe president of Restos92 (Hauts de Seine)
• Romain Colucci, volunteer at the Restos du Cœur volunteer center
• Patrice Leclerc mayor of Gennevilliers (PCF)
• Georges Siffredi, president of the Hauts de Seine department Georges Siffredi
• Patrice Douret volunteer president of Restos du Cœur
