Set in a Ford factory in England in 1968, and based on a true story, this portrays a decisive moment in that decade of upheaval, when the fight for equal rights and pay was led by ordinary working-class women with one foot in the kitchen, one foot on the factory floor, and ears glued to the pop coming over the radio and telly. They had to deal with opposition from their bosses, husbands and government, but eventually got what they wanted. For a while, anyway, until the corporations discovered cheaper labour markets.
