"This is the story of the longest sit-in protest in the history of the Italian labour movement. A group of workers at the former GKN auto parts factory in Campi Bisenzio, on the outskirts of Florence, came together to form their own cooperative and eventually devote their energies to new forms of sustainable and eco-friendly production. Writer Angelo Ferracuti pays a visit to find out more about the collective's vision as well as the rich connections it has formed with many literary figures. "
