(Rubaiyat Hossain, Bangladesh/France/Denmark/Portugal 2021, 95 min., DCP, Bengali w/English subtitles)

Recounting the experience of women garment workers in Bangladesh, the film describes their efforts to form a union that will protect their rights. Inspired by Made in Dagenham (2010), which tells the story of women upholsterers unionizing in a British auto plant, the film testifies to the determination of women to demand respect and dignity in the workplace.
