Documentary examining the tanneries of Dhaka and the employees tasked producing cheap leather using archaic machinery, and toxic products which burn the skin and can cause cancer.
Air taobh a-muigh baile Dhaka, tha slum m貌r l脿n de thaighean-cairtidh far a bheil c貌rr is c貌ig cheud m矛le neach a' fuireach. Gach bliadhna, tha na slumaichean seo a' l矛onadh mhargaidean na Roinn E貌rpa le leathar saor.
Tha an luchd-obrach seo mar thr脿illean, ag obair gach latha aig seann innealan agus ann an suidheachaidhean sgriosail gus ceithir-deug millean bian a dh猫anamh na leathar. Tha na ceimigean a thathar a' cleachdadh air an leathar a' losgadh an craicinn, ag adhbhracadh aillse agus a' marbhadh a' mh貌r chuid dhiubh mus ruig iad caogad bliadhna a dh'aois.
Tha am fiolm seo a' toirt far comhair seallaidhean 脿 fear dhe na h-脿iteachan as uabhasaiche air an Talamh.
On the outskirts of Dhaka lies a giant slum of tanneries and over 500,000 people who work in them. Every year this living hell floods the European market with cheap leather.
The workers here slave away at archaic machinery in absolute squalor, turning 14 million skins into leather. Toxic products used on the leather burn their skin, cause cancer and kill most before fifty.
This film delivers a devastating insight into one of the most terrible places on Earth.
