Prohibition is the seventeenth album by experimental French singer Brigitte Fontaine, released in 2009 on the Polydor label. The album features political content, as it is described by Fontaine as "a rebellious album", and the song Partir ou rester was written as a reaction to the 2007 French presidential election.[1]
