The read
It runs a compact 59m.
Synopsis
A documentary about how a motley band of – mostly female- retail workers took on a retail giant – Canada’s Timothy Eaton Company. In the tradition of socialist and feminist filmmaking of the day, we immersed ourselves in these women’s lives as they fought for a first contract, hanging out with strikers on the picket line, at union meetings and in their homes.
