Abstract
Abstract Looking at some of the most important work-related French films of recent years, this article sets out to do three things. It begins by analysing how the films narrate the exit from Fordism and the accompanying transition from the old disciplinary regime to a new one characterised by a ‘caring’ eugenics. It continues by contrasting the old Fordist and new post-Fordist human subjects and the spatial and material universes they inhabit. It concludes by evaluating the capacity of the films to renew critique. Moyennant une analyse des films français récents les plus importants qui traitent du monde du travail, cet article se donne trois objectifs principaux. D'abord, il examine la façon dont ces films racontent la sortie du fordisme et la transition conséquente du vieux régime disciplinaire à un nouveau régime, caractérisé par son eugénisme ‘compréhensif’. Deuxièmement, l'article analyse le contraste entre les anciens sujets fordistes et les nouveaux sujets postfordistes et entre les différents univers spatiaux et matériels qu'ils habitent. Troisièmement, l'article évalue la capacité de ces films à renouveler leur portée critique Notes [1] Guiraudie's film is relatively little known, especially outside of France, but constitutes nevertheless, I think, one of the most original and important interventions in this area.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
