DESCRIPTION:Hello: Mr. Huh Dae-Soo (68 min.) 2008 Korea\nBy Jung Ho-jung and Seoul 
 Labor News Production and Hyundai Workers Union \nThis dramatic film is 
 about the Hyundai Motors workers and irregular workers in Kia Motors. As 
 with Director Ken Loach, the workers are the stars of the film. Striking 
 Central Cable workers in Ulsan also took part in the film as extras. The 
 daily drama of workers who are stressed out from job insecurity, layoffs, 
 and conflicts between regular and temporary workers makes this a searing 
 piece of reality. Transformation and unity begins through their discussion 
 and collaboration. Working on the assembly lines, playing football during 
 break, having meetings at the union office and conference rooms and 
 struggling to survive show the reality of life for Korean 
 workers.\nhttp://www.lnp89.org\n\nWorkers Dreams (50 min.) 2007 Vietnam\nBy 
 Tran Phuong Thao (With English subtitles)\nThousands of young women now 
 work in foreign owned factories in Vietnam for approximately $2 a day. This 
 film shows the lives of these young rural women who end up in a Japanese 
 Canon factory in the Saigon area. Hoping to make a new life with many 
 consumer goods around them they are ground up in the capitalist system and 
 their dreams and illusions about the new Vietnam are crushed. \nSee
