2/18 - Made in Bangladesh (2019, Bengali, 95 Min.)
Inspired by the true story of a female textile worker in Dhaka who founded the country’s first women’s union. Made in Bangladesh tells the story of Shimu’s revolt, when against all odds, management threats and her husband’s anger, she sets up a union with other female workers working in a garment sweat-shop factory making 1,500 shirts per day for minimal pay. Shimu works to transform a tale of exploitation into one of empowerment with better working conditions and pay.
