Synopsis

In one of the last remaining sewing and textile factories in Austria, the industry's last master craftswomen are at work. The film offers an intimate glimpse into their daily lives, with a calm camera capturing the routine. Here, mutual care and solidarity prevail. Most of the clothing industry has left Austria and Europe, but these women keep the tradition alive. With the sound of whirring machines in the background, they share stories about their daily work and highlight the significance of their vanishing craft in a globalized textile industry. A moving portrait of female workers who are fighting against the tide of change.
