Cool Tools Highlights ‘Workingman’s Death’ - by Mike Hall, AFL-CIO Weblog
With the annual Workers Memorial Day commemoration coming up next month, the AFL-CIO Cool Tools selection is highlighting “Workingman’s Death,” a movie documenting six of the most dangerous, deadly and exploitive jobs on the planet. Filmmaker Michael Glawogger says he “wanted to make a movie where you sit in the cinema and actually feel the weight on your back.”
That’s exactly what he did with “Workingman’s Death,” a harsh documentary about manual labor around the world.
