Contents/Summary

Summary
1971: a PC District Secretary decides to remove the chair of an agricultural cooperative. After a county-level deliberation the Party bureaucrats confront the co-op leadership. At the coop’s general meeting, despite a peculiar balloting procedure, the farmers vote against removal. Stung, the Party tries to enforce a second ballot – to no avail. In the postscript the honchos offer their postmortem. The coda is cut short by the Party Secretary: “that’s it”. The following year the chair was recalled by assembly of the co-op. One of the “Best 100 Documentaries of all time” by the International Documentary Association.
