The 'slavery' of low-cost clothes from two points of view

I want to present a short film entitled '38', is part of a campaign called Clean Clothes that was launched over a year ago by the NGO SETEM.

The objective of '38' is twofold: on the one hand Easily publicize the conditions of a worker In any of the countries where work is carried out in a situation of slavery. On the other hand, to send a very clear message (especially) to young women. 'When you buy a low-cost dress you enslave a woman from the South (38 euros per month)'; 'When you are forced into a low-cost dress you enslave yourself' ...

These are the final messages of the short film that uses animation with plasticine dolls and real scenes.

From the observation of a worker who spends 12 hours in a factory to make clothes that later travel thousands of kilometers; You pass a girl who goes shopping and then tries to 'wear' a dress of size 'almost' impossible for most (a 38).

The Clean Clothes Campaign (CRL) is an international coalition of NGOs, organizations of individuals and consumers, unions and other entities that work for the defense of labor rights in the world textile sector. He was born in the Netherlands in 1989 and is active in 14 European countries.
