The Women of Brukman

  • 88 views

December 2001, a deep economic crisis hits Argentina. In Buenos Aires, the owners of the Brukman clothing factory abandon their facility. In a bold move, workers take over the factory.

The director followed their struggle for several years, from restarting the factory to multiple evictions and learning self-management. This adventure, which began as a survival strategy, gradually becomes a true school of citizenship.
