The Song of the Shirt (1979)
Song tells the story of the women who worked in Victorian London's clothing sweatshops, eschewing a conventional narrative in favour of a series of still photographs and acted reconstructions to show that this story has been rewritten/written-over many times before.
Directors: Jonathan Curling, Sue Clayton.
