“Made in Dagenham” is the drama based on a true story in 1960’s. It is about a group of women who works for the huge Ford Company where they do not have appropriate working conditions and go on strike to have an equal pay as men have. The main characters Rita O'Grady (Sally Hawkins) and Connie (Geraldine James) change the story of their lives between their household life and the battle with their employers.
The girls work in a tight place where they are responsible to make the car seats. One day Rita and Connie join Albert to have a meeting with Ford’s representatives to discuss the woman’s salary. The result of the discussion is unsuccessful; as a consequence the girls make a boycott that means stopping the manufacture affecting all the process to car assembly. From this moment they start to have a lot of important protests reaching their objective, an increment of their salary. Their efforts help to get equal conditions in UK.
We would recommend this film to all cinema goers because of its well-made quality. It shows a real history about the development of the women in the UK society and how important to listen to our heart, follow our dreams making effort to succeed.
