△ 影片介紹 FILM SYNOPSIS

移民博物館內,看著陳列出的二十世紀初美國移民工作景象,移工露比不假思索:「這就跟今天一樣……」非法移民來到美國,大多為血汗成衣廠工作,非法的身份讓他們難以站穩腳步,捍衛自身的權利。這些大部分為女性的移工,領取低於最低工資的薪水,在惡劣的環境下超時工作,受盡剝削,為平價潮牌製作服飾。導演艾莫迪娜歷時五年,以影像記錄三名從南美偷渡到洛杉磯的拉丁裔成衣廠女工,加入洛杉磯工運組織——成衣勞工中心 (Garment Worker Center) 的抗爭運動,同時以近距離的影像敘事,呈現她們的生命故事。

 

Maria, Lupe and Maura are three Latina immigrants struggling to survive in Los Angeles sweatshops. Against all odds, they band together and wage a sustained public campaign against one of the city's major clothing retailers, bringing much needed attention to the problem of low-wage labor in the US. The film traces the women's struggle for basic economic justice and personal dignity, as they navigate disappointments and dangers and ultimately find hope.
