Explores the plight of a group of women working in the new ‘sweated’ clothes trade in London. […] Originally intended as a history of the welfare state, as well as a contribution to debates on feminist history, The Song of the Shirt is constructed as a documentary, although the use of multiple-screen effects, monitors displaying text and projected backdrops constantly disrupts the flow of information. Few dates are revealed in the film, forcing us to address the arguments rather than the chronology. […] The Song of the Shirt’s combination of relentless political content and a dislocated and disruptive presentation makes it stand out from its contemporaries in its ambition to present a genuinely feminist independent film.” (source: Screenonline) After the screening, Sue Clayton was in conversation with Kodwo Eshun of The Otolith Group. 2023-06-21 Birkbeck College, University of London 10.18743/DATA.00000246 Essay Film Festival http://purl.org/dc/terms/isPartOf /id/eprint/245 yes 2036-07-07 bimi metadata_and_data_files no student The Essay Film Festival ran between 2015 and 2023, and presented a global range of contemporary and restored essayistic works.
