Abstract	Safety is our motto. This is the sign towering over the entrance to the port of Alang, the world's largest ship-breaking port. Here, every day, around 80,000 workers strip down the metal carcasses of massive vessels, using their bare hands or rudimentary tools, without the support of medical services. Although they are banned, many of the ships arriving here contain asbestos, toxic or radioactive substances. Accidents and mortality are a daily occurrence. Our journey among the Indian workers begins here and continues with the cotton and sugar cane workers of Gujarat and among the TATA-Fiat metal workers of Bengal. The stories of the protagonists together with the voices of Indian trade union leaders and intellectuals. Nel film sono presenti immagini di repertorio del 1952 relative alla coltivazione della canna da zucchero in una tenuta olandese.
Regia	D'Elia, Tommaso
